The Goshen Garden Club was chartered on March 20, 1933 by
ten of Goshen's leading citizens.

Mrs. Josephine Jenks organized the Club and the first meeting
was held in the Congregational Church parlor.  Meetings for a
number of years were held in the homes of the respective
members until the membership grew too large,
after which they met at the Goshen Academy.

We now meet at the Church of Christ Congregational Parish
House and enjoy a membership of 70 from
Goshen and surrounding towns.

And now, in 2008, we are celebrating
our 75th year!

PLANT SALE RAFFLE BASKETS
Cathy Felten would like to remind members that raffle time is
here again and she would like everyone to help getting items for
the baskets.  Last year Dolores and Cheryl did a wonderful job
of putting it altogether.  Their efforts made a big difference in
our balance sheet.  Both are very busy ladies this year.  The
raffle team is very creative with the presentation and marketing
of the items.  All we need are the donations!  You can drop them
off at Cathy's, Dolores', Pat Hickey's or Mary Orlando's house.
 All garden related items from a pair of gloves to a John Deere
tractor will be appreciated.
Our purpose is to encourage an interest in and an appreciation of
our natural environment through sharing knowledge of gardening,
conservation, ecology and wildlife habitat.

THE GARDEN GATE
The garden gate is set ajar
For those who love the soil,
Who think of work with growing things
As something more than toil;
Who note the beauty of a flower,
The outline of a leaf,
Who find in nature's loveliness,
A balm for pain and grief.
A mystic joy and quiet peace
Are there, and they await
The comradeship of those who walk
Within the garden gate.
