The Spring Garden Club deliver treat to Firemen and Policemen

Earlier this year in conjunction with the Hamden's Woman's Club delivered goodies Policemen and Firemen. Members want the first responders to know we appreciate THEM.

The Club has been a fixture in the Hamden community since 1925, a chartered member of The Federated Garden Clubs of Connecticut, Inc., and National Garden Clubs, Inc., since 1929.

The Garden Club ongoing projects include gardens and planters in Spring Glen, Poppy’s Garden on the Farmington Canal Trail and the Historical Herb Garden at The Jonathan Dickerman House.

The Club donated 10 American Elm hybrid trees to the Hamden Center Park as a result of its successful Wreaths for Trees program.

Other projects of the Club are a Rhododendron Garden at the entry to Lockwood Cottage and the Red Oak tree (Quercus rubra) affectionately known as “Annie Oakley” planted in the Eli Whitney Park.

The Spring Glen Garden Club is looking for new members, who are not only interested in horticultural pursuits but civic beautification and preservation of our natural resources. There are no residency requirements to belong, our members are as local as Hamden, North Haven, Branford, or as far flung as Goshen.For further membership information, please call Dorothy at 203.934.5975
