Garden Club Planning Annual Greens Sale

The Garden Club of Newtown will hold its annual Christmas Greens Sale on Saturday, December 1, at Newtown Meeting House, 31 Main Street (at the flagpole), from 9 am to 1 pm.

This is the club’s main fundraiser and members plan all year for this special event by drying plants from their gardens and collecting pinecones and other items to use in decorating wreaths, swags and table arrangements for the holiday season.

Fresh plant material such as winterberry, holly, rose hips, boxwood and a wide assortment of evergreens will also be incorporated into the designs.

Small tabletop trees, kissing balls, roping, treats for the birds, and a wide variety of handmade gift items will be available.  This is a popular event and the club recommends coming early for the best selection.
