Saturday, May 20 —RUTLAND—The Rutland Garden Club Plant Sale is a local tradition and it’s coming back Saturday at 9 a.m. at the corner of Main and Center Streets in Rutland in front of the Hull Maynard Hersey Building.
There will also be a bake sale with proceeds dedicated to our new Rutland Garden Club Scholarship. The scholarship was established to encourage the pursuit of a career in fields related to the natural environment.
Founded in 1914, the Rutland Garden Club has contributed to the beautification of the Rutland area for over 100 years. Currently we support over 20 public gardens throughout the city. The club also works to stimulate the public’s interest in all phases of gardening through educational presentations, workshops, garden therapy, and youth projects. We hope our scholarship will help inspire the next generation to continue this tradition of community service. The first scholarship will be awarded on June 14 at the RHS Senior Awards Ceremony.
