Bethany Retirement Home Garden

When a call was put out to help plant gardens at the Bethany Retirement Home,  4950 N. Ashland, 3 NGS members volunteered their services.

NGS Volunteers Honored

The NGS members who gave of their time in 2016 were honored at a dinner in January. Without their help we would not be able to care for our gardens in the parks, offer educational programs or host fund-raisers. Their work is greatly appreciated.
