The Gardening with Young People Program is designed to meet with different groups of young people from the Acton-Boxborough community who are invited to participate in a hands-on educational project involving one or more of the following concentrations: horticulture, floral design, conservation, civic beautification and garden therapy. The Gardening with Young People Program provides assistance and funding, if necessary. It also provides education and assistance in coordination with the garden Club’s Education Grant. This committee has an ongoing relationship with the Acton-Boxborough Regional School District. It functions in both a consultative and hands-on supervisory role with the elementary school’s teachers and students in their pollinator gardens. Additionally it has a strong relationship with the A B Buddies program at the Acton-Boxborough Regional High School. The committee meets with this after-school club multiple times a year to arrange flowers for an event or for the student’s families or plant flowers on the school grounds or in pots to be taken home. The committee welcomes opportunities to work with other groups in the community.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A great time is always guaranteed when the Acton Garden Club visits AB Buddies. At an after school meeting of AB Buddies, seven members of the Gardening With Young People Committee of the Acton Garden Club, including Tanaz Hashemi, Judy Rice, Cathy Fochtman, Helen Webster, Pam Covert, Melissa Coucke and Ruth Schemel showed 18 members of the high school club in how to make an arrangement of fall flowers, ferns and straw. Each student went home with an arrangement in a lovely clay pot to share with their families. Additional arrangements were made for Tammy Morgan, teacher of the Occupational Development Program and Jodi Chu, AB Buddies Club Advisor.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
