What We Do
Our activities are focused on learning, doing and sharing with others. Education is a primary focus. At our meetings members and invited speakers share their knowledge and know how about subjects of varied interest to the gardener, everything from the indoor propagation of seedlings to the identification and eradication of invasive plant species. At recent meetings we learned about bee keeping and pollinators, herb gardening and insect infestations affecting the Northeast. One of our favorite speakers is Walter Perry, nurseryman and proprietor of Perry’s Florist and Gardens in Glen Rock.
The Club has, down through the years, contributed much the the Glen Rock community. We have as our annual volunteer project the planting and care of seasonal flowers at the rear entrance to the Glen Rock Library. In addition, each December members of the Club decorate the interior of the Library with colorful seasonal decorations including garlands over the archways and other displays. Outdoors we hang wreaths on the doors and plant decorative cold weather plants in the pedestal. We can always use a helping hand so if you are interested in playing a part, however small, please let us know.
