The Annual Plant Sale - Our Primary Fundraiser

Our Annual Plant Sale is traditionally held the Saturday before Mothers’ Day on the Congregational Church Green in the center of Cheshire.  It features a tremendous selection of member- grown plants as well as other special plants obtained from area growers and a tag sale of  gently used garden-related items.

Shoppers arrive early and come back year after year to purchase quality plants that have been carefully nurtured by our members.  

This plant sale is our primary fundraiser.  Proceeds from the sale enable the club to make a positive contribution to the community through numerous charitable and civic activities.  In addition to offering college scholarships to area students pursuing degrees in horticulture or environmental studies, club activities include planting and maintaining gardens at the Moore House Senior Center, The Hitchcock Phillips House Historical Society, The Cheshire Public Library and the Yellow House Youth Center.  Club members also provide floral arrangements to patients at Connecticut Hospice and conduct garden therapy programs for area seniors.  Proceeds are also used to conduct programs for our members and the public that focus on increasing the knowledge of and interest in gardening as well as awareness of environmental issues.
