Last month, many of our long-time members received plant deliveries along with appreciation for their unrelenting support of our beloved Society. This was something new that we tried to remain connected during this time of staying apart. Members who received a visit responded positively.
Another tradition we’ve had to re-invent this spring was how to recognize members’ milestone anniversaries. With member support more important than ever, we did not want to overlook letting these folks know how much we appreciate their loyalty. So once again, volunteers from CT Hort and Friendship Tours delivered plants over the Memorial Day weekend to many of the members who celebrated anniversaries of 10 years or longer.
