New Signs Mark our Civic Gardens
As part of its mission, the Garden Club of Brookfield supports the maintenance of several gardens in town. Throughout the growing season you have likely seen our members raking, weeding, trimming, and planting the flower beds and borders. The club is pleased to have recently completed a project to design, make and install signs in each of those civic gardens – helping make our presence known. Our logo – a thistle – is prominently displayed in the center of the sign indicating the club name.

Happy Springtime wishes from the Garden Club. Keep safe and healthy everyone.
Spring is evident at the Museum and Flagpole Gardens
A drive by the Museum and Flagpole Triangle gardens yesterday provided a pop of spring. A member had to stop and inspect and then took some photos to share with us. Miniature irises, daffodils, and periwinkle. They look so happy out in that sunshine.
January Meeting Exhibits
For our meeting on January 16, 2020, the artistic exhibit theme was “Winter Fairyland” – a reflective design using fresh and/or dried materials. The Horticultural exhibit was evergreen branches, 12 inch minimum length, 20 inch maximum length.
Holiday Party
On December 12, 2019, members of the Garden Club gathered with friends (including three fellow-gardeners from the Redding Garden Club) to celebrate the season at its annual holiday luncheon. Music during the event was provided by the SJK Jazz ensemble. A good time was had by all. Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year, everyone.
