Creating and Caring for Public Gardens
Bath Gamma Garden Club is responsible for several garden sites throughout Bath Township. Our biggest project involves planting and maintaining the herb gardens by the Salt Box House at Hale Farm & Village. We start in the early spring, cleaning out the beds and adding more herbs that would have been used back in the 1830s.
The club also created our 50th Anniversary Garden near the Bath Baseball Fields. The perennial and annual plants all provide splashes of gold throughout the season. We also plant and maintain several smaller gardens throughout our area, thus beautifying the Administration Buildings and the entrances of the cemeteries and the Post Office.
