Our Mission
The purpose of our club is to stimulate an interest in gardening, the conservation of our natural resources, the studies of horticulture, landscape design and floral design. Our club is situated in Groveland, Massachusetts and we also encourage civic beautification, as well as maintaining and perserving our meeting place locally known as the Little Red Schoolhouse.
Calendar of Events
We hold events throughout our season to further our education and continue the beautification of our community. See our calendar of events below to see what we are up to next.
The Little Red Schoolhouse
The North School, a one room schoolhouse built in 1865 and current home for the Groveland Garden Club, is still situated at its original location at 26 Broad Street in a section of town known as Savaryville.
The school has seen many generations of Groveland children enter and leave through its doorways until 1956 when a burgeoning post World War II population finally overran the modest space, forcing students to relocate to a different school.
The Little Red School House as it is affectionately called by townsfolk, is owned by the town of Groveland, and leased to the Groveland Garden Club.
The Club saved the building from demolition in 1969 and has since lovingly cared for the schoolhouse as a living exhibit. The original blackboards still hang on the walls and the floors are the same ones that generations of Groveland children trod when the town was in its infancy.
