While the Wareham Garden Club hasn’t held official meetings over the summer and hasn’t met in person in months members have gathered at the start of each month to explore and admire gardens around town.
The last stop of the summer was the cul-de-sac at the end of Cory Drive, off Great Neck Road.
The circle of land in the center of the cul-de-sac was initially maintained by a contractor who eventually stopped mowing the grass.

Wreaths were placed at significant locations across town on Dec. 28 in honor of National Wreaths Across America Day.
The national holiday with a mission of remembering, honoring, and teaching about those who serve was actually on Dec. 19, but celebrations in Wareham were postponed due to inclement weather.
The wreaths were placed at the memorial on the town green, in front of Town Hall, cemeteries across town (Centre, St. Patrick’s, Long Neck, and Agawam), and at the Hero’s Circle outside the National Cemetery in Bourne.
