What We Do
The Club focuses on beautification projects that include annual plantings, on-going maintenance and holiday decorations for public spaces throughout the community.
Members meet at each other's homes in the evening. Special programs or speakers of interest to gardeners are scheduled for the meetings. Field trips and educational opportunities are available throughout the year. An annual fundraiser is planned each year to fund our community service.
Efforts are funded by modest membership dues, donations and grant opportunities. The club is grateful for the grants we have received in recent years from National Garden Clubs, Inc. - Plant for America Program, and the Rotary Club of Tarrytown, Sleepy Hollow and Irvington.
