Improving Sewickley public spaces since 1963.

Our purpose is to coordinate the efforts of individuals and member clubs to beautify our community.

Since 1963, the Sewickley Civic Garden Council (SCGC) has encouraged the appreciation of nature through educational programs, and worked toward improving Sewickley public spaces through the planting and maintenance of landscape material.

Beautification

SCGC, which is currently composed of four garden clubs -- Grapevine Garden Club, Little Garden Club, Trowel & Error Garden Club, and Village Garden Club -- as well as Sustainable Sewickley, continues to stimulate interest and influence action toward preserving and improving the appearance of the Sewickley area.

May Mart

May Mart 2024 will be held on Saturday, May 11th from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. in the heart of Sewickley village.

Garden Tour

The 2024 SCGC Garden Tour will be held Friday June 14th and Saturday June 15th.

Lectures

SCGC lectures occur on a biannual basis. Our most recent lecture occurred on Thursday, April 20, 2023, at the Allegheny Country Club.

SCGC awards grants each year with the focus on any public space throughout the greater Sewickley 11 municipality area.
