Community
The MGC provides annual passes to the Tower Hill Botanical Gardens. The passes are provided at no charge to Millis residents through the Millis Public Library. We encourage you to visit this wonderful public garden in Boylston, MA any time of the year. Passes may be reserved at the Millis Public Library. Please visit the Tower Hill website for specific details on events.
MGC’s Scholarship Program assists Millis students who want to further their education in a horticultural field. Complete scholarship information can be found here.
Each Spring the MGC partners with the Millis Lions Club to sponsor Millis Beautification Day, a town-wide clean-up tp help keep our town looking tip-top. It's a true community event.
Inspire. Educate. Grow.
The Millis Garden Club's goal is to enhance the beauty and spirit of our community through civic and fundraising projects in the field of horticulture. We were established in 2004 as a venue for those who share a common passion for improving both home and civic landscapes.
We offer diverse opportunities to inspire, educate, and stimulate our members, and offer the community ways to grow with us.
