 Our new tagline is…”Friendships and Flowers Growing Together”

Looking for a tagline that would better represent the Milton Garden Club, a “tagline” contest was held recently among our members.  From the numerous entries,  “Friendships and Flowers Growing Together” was selected and now appears on our website header and will also appear on new club promotional materials. 

The winning tagline represents how our club has become known as a welcoming group devoted to our membership and excellent at fostering friendships.   Even though our members’ main job is to plant and maintain flowers and perennials in downtown Milton gardens, many join the club for other reasons as well.  Friendships bloom from engaging in monthly meetings, fundraising events and town activities.  For information about joining, click here.
