Greetings Neighbors!
Wishing you a joyful Thanksgiving surrounded by family, friends, and wonderful memories!
Our 2025 year of the Mill Creek Towne Garden Club began with an outstanding garden presentation entitled “Make a Spectacle in the Garden!–” by Marie Rojas, a master gardener with the Montgomery County Master Gardener Program. Below are some events and activities that we provided to the community and our garden club members this year.
Community Events
- Make a Spectacle in the Garden!– Tuesday, March 25
- Mill Creek Stream Extreme Cleanup – Saturday, April 19
- MCT Garden Club Plant & Yard Sale – Saturday, May 3
- Introduction to the World of Herbs – Tuesday, October 28
Club Activities
- Native Seed Workshop Hosted by Lauren Hubbard on January 25
- Beyond the Garden Gates Garden Tour in Frederick, MD on May 18 –
- MCT Garden Club Luncheon in June
- MCT Garden Club provided beverages for the Mill Creek Village Community Picnic in September
In addition to opening our programs to the community, we are hard at work maintaining the Roslyn, Shady Grove, and Miller Fall entrances to MCT, as well as the Mill Creek Drive Circle, keeping several of our members busy with weeding, transplanting, watering, pruning, and erosion control! We provide monthly garden tips/events and share them on our Facebook page, website, and in the Mill Creek Village newsletter. We are very pleased with the Mill Creek Village “Welcome Bag” program for new residents. Our garden club contributes a seed packet and welcoming note as part of their package.
We would like to thank you for your support in the past years! Donations to pay for landscaping and maintenance of the Mill Creek Towne Entrances and our garden-related programs at our community meetings are greatly appreciated and accepted year-round! Please help support the Mill Creek Towne Garden Club! To fulfill our mission, we depend on the generosity of donors who appreciate the value of our services. If you can help, please visit our donations page (see link below). We accept online and check donations.
