In 2019, member Mary Gould donated $10,000 to the GCN. With a portion of the funds, a bench has been purchased for the town to enjoy. It has been placed in sight of some of our gardens on Town Hill. Members enjoyed treats and had a chance to talk about this summer’s gardens as we dedicated this bench to members of the GCN past, present, and future. We visited some of the gardens planted and maintained by the GCN in the center of town and chatted with our experts about readying your garden for the fall and winter.
