EASTON, MD (July 18, 2016) — The Talbot County Garden Club has a long-standing partnership with Historic Easton, Inc. and Chesapeake Wildlife Heritage on the maintenance of the gardens around the historic Railroad Station in Easton. Over the last few weeks, The Talbot County Garden Club has worked with Garden Design of Easton to help redesign and rejuvenate a section of the garden dedicated to one of its past members, Polly Shannahan. The new design incorporates new native plantings with multi season appeal for easy maintenance and stepping stones to enable walking between sections of the garden. Come enjoy the newly rejuvenated section as you walk along the Easton Rails-to-Trails.
