COMMUNITY
PROJECTS OF THE
BETHLEHEM GARDEN CLUB
To serve the Community, we will
- take an active role in beautification of our town by
promoting collaborative endeavors with the town, businesses and other
organizations toward beautifying our streets and public places. We will
provide trees, plant materials and expertise as consultants toward improving
the appearance of our town.
- host a garden tour. Have at least two members serve on the
Bethlehem First Beautification Committee.
- support our Chamber of Commerce.
To Conserve Our Natural Resources, we will
- continue an active program within the club to educate our
members as to the dangers of pesticide use; how to promote gardening
balance; and, how we can best aid and live in harmony with the wild life
around us.
- continue our relationship with Five Rivers Environmental
Center, and Albany County Cooperative Extension.
To Support Education, we will
- annually offer a $1,00.00 Education Grant to elementary
school teachers interested in enhancing their environmental science
curriculum.
- continue our support of the Bethlehem Public Library.
To Increase Our Knowledge, we will
- offer programs to our members regarding horticulture,
flower arranging, and techniques in garden planning and maintenance; and
nature conservancy.
- encourage our members to actively share their knowledge
with others both within the club and with the community at large.
