Welcome!
The Mill Creek Towne Garden Club in Derwood, Maryland was established in 1968 with the mission to stimulate and increase knowledge and interest in all facets of gardening among amateurs, establish an active community beautification program and to encourage civic beautification, and foster group activities for the benefit of the members and the community. The garden club also landscapes and maintains the Mill Creek Towne entrances and common areas.

The club meets once a month, at 7:00 pm on the 4th Tuesday of each month (except for May, June, July, November, and December).
Who's feeling grateful that it's November!?
As we bid farewell to the growing season, those dazzling fall leaves are here to light up our shorter days. Don't forget to let some leaves blanket the ground in garden beds and at the base of trees. They act as the cozy quilt tucking in our overwinter insects like fireflies and Luna moths.

Get the Biggest Bang for Your Sweat with Smart Garden Practices Recap
On Monday, October 26, 2026, guest speaker, Meipo Martin, Master Gardener gave us a special presentation on an “Get the Biggest Bang for Your Sweat with Smart Garden Practices”.
The presentation was very informative and Mill Creek Towne Garden Club members and guests learned a lot of great techniques on how to garden more effectively. She taught us better ways to improve your soil, suppress weed, help your plants grow stronger and healthier with less water, less garden products and, most importantly, less work!
