Cape Cod, Massachusetts is a popular vacation spot for thousands of tourists every year. Members of the Lower Cape Rose Society wanted to share their love of roses with the many people living or visiting this northeast peninsula thirty miles out in the Atlantic Ocean where there is no public rose garden. The Lower Cape Rose Society holds monthly meetings at the newly established community center, and a rose garden at the center would be the perfect educational tool to reach the rose-loving public and also thank the community for the generosity they have shown to our club. The hard work of the members of the Lower Cape Rose Society saw the fulfillment of their dreams. Roses in bloom at the new Harwich Community Center! Town officials were contacted, the project was approved, and letters to rose companies were written. Removing the grass, rototilling the soil, adding amendments, and finally planting the over four-hundred roses was all done in a matter of weeks.
ROSES WERE IN BLOOM ALL SUMMER AT THE NEW HARWICH COMMUNITY CENTER GARDEN OF THE LOWER CAPE ROSE SOCIETY
