Norchester Garden Club - ABCS - Matzke Butterfly Garden

Information in support of NGC, the gardens of Matzke Park, and our home gardens. A 501c3, Association for Better Community Schools (ABCS), was founded in 1994 and successfully preserved these 20 acres for public use. In 2007 ABCS and Norchester Garden Club (NGC) members developed, and still maintain, the Butterfly Garden. NGC projects, meeting notices, and programs are reported here and the public is welcome to participate. Email questions or comments to ABCS.Park@att.net

Bless The Gardener

I spend my spare hours growing shrubs and flowers. I tend the land with spade in my hand. I gather the fruits of my labor and sow cuttings and seeds. The scent of my roses just lingers with love and great care. I tend all that is there. Thank goodness for the land - and the hands that help Matzke Butterfly Garden. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Coffee and Treats at the Garden

The Norchester Garden Club has a new Butterfly Garden Director, Jean. She provided a wonderful treat (with table cloth) of coffee, fruits and homemade bakery. Some very lovely ladies have taken on individual beds to maintain. You are going to see some wonderful happenings as this idea is expanded. This is a fun group and please join them December 1 at 8:30 a.m. to prepare the beds for winter with mulching.
