News and Activities
This holiday season, our club decorated a room at Middlesex Meeting House on Concord Road. For the colonial theme, our decor included only real plants.
Each year Billerica Garden Club holds a May plant sale featuring perennials from members' gardens, as well as annuals and hanging baskets. The 2006 sale is scheduled from 9:00 A.M. - 1:00 P.M. on Saturday, May 13th (the day before Mothers Day!) at the Billerica Senior Center, 25 Concord Road near the town common. People in the community look forward to buying our members' perennials at a good price, and can trust that these plants are well cared for by the members. Profits from the sale help our budget with town beautification projects, Garden Therapy, programs, and a scholarship.
