Rehoboth Garden Club News for December 2023

Our Rehoboth Garden Club has been very busy getting ready for the holiday season. On November 27th our club President Paul Nunes taught members how to create hanging boxwood kissing balls. Each unique design will be a beautiful addition to a member’s home.

On Monday December 4th club members will gather for our annual wreath and basket making event. Decorated wreaths will be donated to decorate the civic buildings in both Seekonk and Rehoboth. Decorated basket arrangements of fresh greens will be created and delivered to homebound club members. A luncheon will be provided by the club officers, followed by a holiday party.

Looking ahead to Monday January 15, 2024, our meeting topic will be The State of the Coast. The beaches, harbors, waterfront business districts and habitats as we know them are endangered. A speaker from the Trustees of Reservations will explain how climate change-driven sea level rise and storm flooding will affect miles of roads and impact ecosystems crucial to coastal resilience and the plants, animals and humans who live there. The community is invited to attend this important presentation. Join us on Monday January 15, 2024 at the Rehoboth Congregational Church Fellowship Hall at 6:30 PM.

We offer our best wishes for a joyous holiday season, with peace and good health in 2024!
