GRANTS and Donations



The Little Garden Club of Rye provides grants and donations to organizations in the community that share our mission.



The RYe Nature Center
Nature Station



LGC recently donated $20,000 to the Rye Nature Center to help sponsor the purchase of their Nature Station - a mobile Nature Center. With this vehicle, they can bring environmental education to children that do not have access to it.



Daffodils



This past Fall, we donated daffodil bulbs to schools and Rye Town Park


The LGCR has reached out to local Grammar schools and two private schools to do a big daffodil planting in Rye.

In addition the club helped the planting of bulbs in Rye Town Park at the entrance of the park.

Club members gave a demonstration of planting techniques and donated the daffodil bulbs to each of the sites. The local public grammar schools did a bulb pick up and planted them at their homes.

We have lots of excited children waiting for the spring bulbs to bloom.​
