The city of Roswell is known for being aesthetically pleasing. Many admire but are unaware that several of the gardens and landscaping projects were completed by the recently awarded #1 Garden Club in the state of Georgia, the Roswell Garden Club.

The handiwork of this group can be seen in the butterfly garden and peach orchard at Barrington Hall and the rose garden at Smith Plantation. It is also found at the local park located on Woodstock Road through the donation of trees. They are continually working on community projects. A few of their endeavors include the Community Wildlife Project, Garden Therapy, Litter Control (Adopt-a-Road), and Historic Preservation. This group also takes its talents outside the city of Roswell through regional and national involvement.

One of the purposes of the Club is to create interest in civic improvement through the beautification of home, town, and country. Members have taken a personal investment in this statement by donating their time and funds to help provide a total of $1700 in renovations at the Roswell Square and planting a tree in the Roswell Area Park after a natural disaster.

Roswell Garden Club meetings are held every fourth Tuesday of the month, at 10:00am, in the community activity building at Roswell Area Park from September through May.
