WELCOME SUMMER: Hard to believe Memorial Day and the Annual Plant Sale have come and gone. The Museum is now open on Sundays from 2-4 and at other times by request, using the contact information above.

 

THANK YOU: The plant sale would not be possible without our incredible volunteers and growers. Thank you to Angela Assermely; Mary Ormrod; Svetlana and Kem Phillips; Anna Shapiro; and Monique.  A very special thank you to the Tings of Moonlite Farms and Murdock’s on the Green. Not only did they create/grow the container veggies/herbs but Etienne came up with the absolutely amazing lettuce bucket design. 

 

Thank you Svetlana for the gardens you’ve been creating at the Museum and your dedication in making sure the planter by the Museum is always filled with seasonally appropriate blooms. 

 

Thanks to Anna and Dave Gallagher the CHS Cares Closet , next to the Museum steps, has had an overhaul and is ready for the season ahead. Remember, everything is free and open 24/7.
