Community Service and Volunteer Projects:

 Alice’s Garden provides models of regenerative farming, community cultural development, and economic agricultural enterprises. The garden’s historical importance includes having  once been the site of the Wisconsin Underground Railroad. Now Venice, who is a fellow  Garden Club member, brings the community together here to cultivate  the land and friendships. Venice invited the Garden Club to adopt the labyrinth.  We have done planting, weeding and clearing of the path starting in the fall of 2020.  The volunteers always leave there with a sense of accomplishment and comradery. 

GCGM members are involved with the Perennial Garden project at Hunger Task Force Farm. We

are helping to identify, restore and replace some of the existing plants. In partnership with

Johnson's Nursery, a pollinator bed has been installed near the raised garden beds where

children learn to garden. There is also interest in restoring the pond and surrounding area

within the garden.

Lakeshore State Park is a 22-acre Wisconsin state park located on the shores of Lake Michigan in the city of Milwaukee.  The only urban state park in Wisconsin, it offers visitors recreational activities and educational opportunities.  We provide and help plant prairie grasses and native perennials to enhance the prairie.
