Dear Friends,

We’re counting down the days to April 21st -22nd and Give Local!

We need your help to make our campaign a success, and we’ve included a few easy ways that you can support us.

Share and share alike. Online days of giving are successful because of our own networks. Help us grow our network by sending this notice to your network and ask your friends to do the same.

Be socially (media) active. Use your social media networks: post on Facebook, tweet about Give Local, and share your love for our environment and our community.

Become a fundraising champion. Everyone loves a champion, including us! We really need fundraising champions to help drive people to our Give Local profile on starting at 7am on April 21st through the 22nd ending at 7pm. Go to the link below and donate to become a fundraising champion!

Thank you in advance for your support!

The Roxbury-Bridgewater Garden Club

The Roxbury-Bridgewater Garden Club is very active in our communities, providing programs in the schools and the senior centers. We give annual scholarships and provide community education on a variety of conservation and gardening topics through our lectures and Plant Mart education table. At the holiday season we decorate each town’s public buildings with wreaths. We maintain gardens throughout both towns.

We host lectures and workshops to further our understanding of our gardens and the natural world.

 Our club maintains the gardens and planters on the Bridgewater Green, the Diebold Garden in Roxbury, the Friendship Garden near Burnham School, the Weller’s Bridge Garden, the Mead’s Corner Garden,  the Roxbury Town Hall and Pavilion, both town’s Veteran’s Memorial plantings, the flag pole plantings at the Bridgewater fire house, the Hut Hill Garden, the Barlow Garden, and the garden at the corner of Route 67 and 317. Our newest gardens are the 200 foot long wall garden in front of the Roxbury Town Hall and Firehouse and the triangle planting at the 317 end of Bacon Rd.. Our volunteers are constantly working in these gardens planning, planting, weeding and pruning.

Please consider joining us!
