About Us


Mukilteo Garden & Quilt Tour is co-sponsored by the Mukilteo Lighthouse Quilters and the Mukilteo Way Garden Club.

Founded in 2004. Mukilteo Lighthouse Quilters is a non-profit organization.  Our mission is to provide members with opportunities to learn more about the craft of quilting, to be involved in community outreach and give time and energy to creating comfort quilts for charity.  We have made over one hundred quilts for Kids Dream in our short history.  Kids Dream is an organization providing services to foster children in Snohomish County.  We have also provided quilts for selected organizations that provide services and housing to seniors.  If you share our passion for quilting, please join us.  Check our website for upcoming meetings and events: www.mukilteolighthousequilters.org.

 

One of the earliest garden clubs in the state, the non-profit Mukilteo Way Garden Club is celebrating its 75th year in 2008. Established in 1933, this club just celebrated the participation of some of our current long-time memberships.  They have been involved twenty, thirty, even fifty years, and still going strong!    Our theme, "Through the Garden Gate," a poem by club member Alice Bell, describes the early beginnings of the club.  Now we follow many paths.  

Our objectives are to promote an interest in gardening and to perform community service.  We are currently caring for the historic Fowler Pear Tree Park and donating time and money to the Evergreen Arboretum in Everett.  Proceeds from our previous garden and quilt tour were used for horticultural scholarships.
