Sponsor a spring clean-up
The Community Gardens Greenhouse maintains the greenhouse and Signature
Garden on Aiken Street, as well as the Mary J. Bacigalupo Victorian Garden in
partnership with the Lowell National Historic Park, and the Garden of Big Ideas and
Earthly Delights in partnership with the Revolving Museum.
We know that each year we will be cleaning up these gardens in preparation for the
growing season. It is at this time that we need the most help.
Earth Day
The Community Gardens Greenhouse sponsors Earth Day at the Community
Gardens Greenhouse. If your company would like to participate in these events,
please contact us. Employees may want to volunteer their services with workshops,
activities, or tree planting. Or, perhaps your corporation would like to be represented
to educate the general public on recycling or energy/water conservation.
Spring Fling
The annual Spring Fling kicks-off our fund raising activities. The sale is held rain or
shine. We sell plants grown at the greenhouse, as well as perennials donated by our
Perennial Partners. How can you help? Tell your employees about our plant sale by
posting our flier on your bulletin boards, stop by and buy some plants, maybe get help
with your garden issues.
