Welcome to the website of the Gardeners of Central Lake County, Illinois. We are a group of gardening enthusiasts that meet once a month to learn more about plants and general garden techniques for our gardening area. Join us at one of our upcoming meetings or activities. We'd love to share our passion for gardening with you!

Join us at our June gathering for a presentation by one of our very own Garden Club members, Chuck Austin, in his talk My Plants Eat Bugs. He will demonstrate how he grows Carnivorous plants in his northern Illinois garden. He will also discuss the Exotic Venus Fly Trap and the beautifully unique American Pitcher Plant. Hopefully this will inspire you to try these exotic plants in your own yard.
LOCATION: Evangelical Free Church located at the south east corner of Garfield Avenue and Austin Avenue in Libertyville, IL
