Christine from Christine's Creations

Pictured Christine from Christine’s Creations Flower Shop 323 Captain Thomas Blvd., West Haven, with her creations at The Spring Glen Garden Club’s Holiday Party. As usual her designs were delightful.

The Club would like to thank the Community for helping us celebrate our 100th anniversary.

The Garden Club ongoing projects includes the gardens and planters in Spring Glen, Poppy’s Garden on the Farmington Canal Trail and the Historical Herb Garden at The Jonathan Dickerman House, watering the plants at the Government Center and the Miller Library.

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 were 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 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. Please stop by our historical display in hall outside the Miller Library in front of the Thorton Wilder Auditorium.
