Garfield Township is a township in Finney County, Kansas, USA. As of the 2000 census, its population was 331.

Historically the Garfield Township was organized as Garfield County in 1887. In 1893, the Kansas Supreme Court ruled that the county was illegally organized for not having the required 432 square miles (1,120 km2) of area, and the county was annexed to Finney County, forming the current township.
