Led by Project Chair CJ Salisbury, Crofton Village Garden Club members decorate for the holidays a number of venues within the community. Beautiful live greens with festive red bows adorn several public schools, Crofton Library, the Village Green and Town Hall.
Thank you to CJ and her husband Palmer for hanging the wreaths at the Village Green, to Carol Buhr for attaching the bows and assisting in hanging the wreaths, to Margo Antonelli, Diane Gallow, Jane McClanahan and Angela Silverstein for delivering wreaths to the schools, the library and Town Hall. Crofton Village Garden Club and other local garden clubs adorn the historic Kinder Farmhouse with decorations for the holidays. Members Nancy Percivall and Beverly Frye along with Megan Weber decorated the kitchen with the infamous white mice. Grandma is making cookies but can't read the recipe because someone took her glasses. Visitors are encouraged to find five mice throughout the house that are on the hunt for Grandma's glasses. The Friends of Kinder Farm Park Historical Society invite you to step back in time and visit the Kinder Farmhouse Museum during the holidays. Docents will tell you about Henry and Hilda Kinder and their eight children who called the farmhouse their home. Open house dates are Saturday, December 3 from 10:30 AM to 3:00 PM and Saturday, December 10 from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Admission to the farmhouse is free; however, park gate fees still apply.
