Guilford Garden Club Seeks Special Funding to Replace Trees on the Town Green

A message from Lillian Comstock, Tree Chair at Guilford Garden Club:

Although the Guilford Garden Club has an annual springtime fundraiser for the planting of trees in the town, the destruction and loss of many trees on the Guilford Green from Hurricane Sandy has prompted the Club to have a special drive just to help replace the Green's trees.

The Club is working with the Guilford Foundation on on this fundraiser. Several damaged trees stlll need to be removed from the Green. Kevin Magee, Town Tree Warden, will select appropriate new trees for the Green and an overall plan for new plantings.

The Club appeals to businesses, organizations and individuals to help with thisspecial drive by making a donation to the Tree Fund for the new trees.  Donations may be made to the Guilford Garden Club-Tree Fund, and mailed to GuilfordGarden Club, 423 Whitfield Street (or to our new P. O. Box 608)Guilford, CT 06437.  (Please note - "For Town Green") All donations are tax-deductible.  For information, call 203-453-5898.
