A new look for The Boulevard
The Westchester Community Image Council invites you to adopt a garden in
Westchester Boulevard. Your $150 donation will help offset the cost of a garden
on a median in The Boulevard.
Several gardens will be planted at a time on various weekends over the summer.
The garden you adopt will include a sign bearing your family or business name or honors a loved one. The Westchester Community Image Council and its volunteers will maintain the gardens.
Gardens are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The WCIC has chosen knockout roses, Russian sage and Karl Foerster reed grass -- all drought-resistant plants that will hold up well on one of the village's main thoroughfares.
You may print out a reservation form, and send it to us with your check.
For additional information, e-mail the WCIC at info@westchestercic.org or call Paige Fumo Fox at 708.562-6035.
Policies pertaining to Adopt a Garden:
Please do not place personal or seasonal decorations or signs of any type in your garden or any other adopted garden. The only sign allowed pursuant to the agreement with the Village of Westchester is the sign that was provided by the WCIC.Please do not move the family/memorial signs to other garden beds. Please be considerate of the other families that, just as you did, have selected and adopted specific garden locations.
Please do not add any additional plantings to the beds. The only plants allowed under the provisions of the Adopt A Garden program are the red Knockout Roses, Karl Foerster Feather Reed Grass and Little Spire Russian Sage.
If you have any questions about these policies or any other issue relative to the Adopt A Garden program, please email us at info@westchestercic.org.
