Philanthropy

At STAR, a non-profit organization serving individuals of all ages who have intellectual and developmental disabilities, members provide a hands-on horticulture program for clients, along with planting and maintaining a vegetable garden. Produce from the garden is distributed to various group homes in the Norwalk area.

The Christmas Fair and May Plant Sale fundraising projects allow the club to award scholarships to Norwalk students who are planning college studies in areas related to horticulture.

Members enjoy a special project, as they arrange Valentine’s Day bouquets for a local nursing home.
