Specialty Crop

Founded in 1956, the Town and Country Garden Club works to beautify Buffalo by helping to promote and educate residents about gardening, including plants that do well in the local environment, including flowers, vegetables, herbs, and fruits. The TCGC holds regular
meetings in which club members and guest speakers offer educational programs on gardening and other topics of interest, and the club also hosts tours to local gardens.

Each May or June, the TCGC conducts a plant sale, offering vegetable and herb starts, tomato cages, annual and perennial flowers, trees, and other garden-related items. This is the club’s largest fund-raising activity, and proceeds are used to plant trees and flowers (including pollinators) in Buffalo, purchase garden-related books for the Johnson County Library, and financially support local charities and civic organizations. The club is a member of the Buffalo Chamber of Commerce.
