History & Horticulture

Our next gathering will be on February 17, 2026 at 2 pm at the American Legion Hall, 19 S. Pleasant Street in Randolph. Join us as we celebrate our shared roots by exploring club memorabilia and working together to organize and preserve our history. Since 1961, we’ve been growing more than gardens — we’ve been growing community. Come lend a hand, share a memory, and be part of keeping our story alive.

This delightful trio of gardening animals is an original watercolor by our late club member Susan Banta (February 11, 1945 – May 12, 2019). Her whimsical style and gentle humor made this piece a favorite, and it was chosen for the cover of our garden club directory in both 2007 and 2011. Susan brought imagination and warmth to everything she created, both as a devoted gardener and as a children’s book illustrator. We’re proud to celebrate her artistry and her lasting place in our club’s story.
