Directions

WRG is a club for learning, sharing and community service. No gardening experience is necessary, and all are welcome to join.

Yearly membership is $35 & guests are welcome to attend individual presentations for $5. The purpose of the club is to meet people, have fun, and raise funds to support town projects. Past projects include cleaning and providing new plantings in the round garden at the library, decorating the library for Christmas, and maintaining several other planters around Westport. Recent enhancement projects are the stone wall on Hix Bridge Road between Route 88 and Main Road with the large stone etched with “Westport”, the rockery and related plantings in front of The Town Hall, and the numerous bulb plantings near the new fire station, library, and surrounding areas. Meetings
Westport River Gardeners meet the first Saturday of each month (except January) at The Macomber Community House,930 Main Road Westport MA at 9:00. July and August there will usually be garden tours instead of meetings. Photos: https://www.flickr.com/photos/westportrivergardeners/
