The Essex Garden Club (EGC) was recently recognized by the Federated Garden Clubs of Connecticut for its civic work maintaining parks, traffic islands, and especially the fundraising used for the planting of trees, shrubs, and perennials. This is part of the ongoing effort of the EGC Civic Team that helps support the mission to create civic beautification in the community and promote educational opportunities for club members and the general public.
