About Us
The Dunbarton Garden Club was founded in 1934. Membership is open to all residents of Dunbarton and also to interested folks in neighboring towns. Our annual dues are set at a modest $20, and benefits include discounts at several local businesses. But the greatest benefit is the pleasure of joining together with old and new friends to make our town and our own gardens more beautiful.
Monthly meetings are held throughout the year (beginning in April and ending in December). Meeting topics vary: we have an annual free plant swap, several meetings each year feature guest speakers, many begin with a garden tour, and others are devoted to working on our community projects. All are casual and fun, and the general public and visitors are always welcome to attend. Like our Facebook page to get updates on our meetings and events!
The Dunbarton Garden Club maintains the gardens on the Town Common surrounding the Library and War Memorials, makes holiday decorations for our town buildings and churches, and provides flowers for the Dunbarton Elementary School graduation as well as the ROOTS program. We also host an support a variety of events in our town geared to increase community involvement especially with children. We understand the beauty of a small town is that one person can make a big difference. Through these efforts we can increase volunteerism and community engagement making Dunbarton one of the most beautiful and friendly places to live in NH.
We are proud of our ten-year project to sell and plant over 100,000 daffodils in Dunbarton to celebrate the town's 250th anniversary in 2015. It was a project that continues to beautify our roadways and gardens to this day. We are excited to announce that this spring and summer (2024), we will offer a special opportunity to buy our Dunbarton bulbs this year only. We will be sharing more on this in the weeks to come...
DGC members meet monthly from April until December of each year, often on the second Monday of the month beginning at 6:30 pm . Members of the public are welcome to most events and meetings.
