Our Home Garden
The three village historical society
The Three Village Historical Society community garden is the home garden of the ReWild Mid Suffolk chapter. The Three Village Historical Society is based in Setauket, and was one of the gardens to be planted through our community gardens program. It is here that Mid Suffolk does its gardening for our volunteer work days. To volunteer, sign up at the bottom of the page.
Visit the TVHS community garden page for more information about the garden
Programs in the Mid Suffolk
Library Talks
Learn about native plant species at our series of library talks and workshops. In libraries and community houses around Mid Suffolk, you can participate in interactive workshops, or listen to informative lectures. Learn how to sow seeds in the winter using recycled materials, what plants are native to your area, and general useful gardening techniques.
Check the events page for upcoming talks!
Winter Walks
Get outside and view the beautiful world around you! Located all across Mid Suffolk, you can experience the great outdoors and get closer to nature! Enjoy leisurely walks and tours around arboretums, forests, gardens, and more. Registration is not necessary, but it does help us know what to expect.
