Welcome!  
This Garden Home History Project was begun to record and preserve the history of this area for the current and future members of our community.  We believe that it is in the smaller stories of our lives that our larger history is found. We invite you to enjoy the stories of those who came here to create farms, businesses and homes.  We encourage you to share your history of living in Garden Home by sending us vintage photos, artifacts or memoirs.  Please use the Contact Us form on the green list.  You may also call or send us an email at the addresses below.  We can scan photos and return the originals to you.   

New Stories and What We are Working On:  
See the new stories in the green bar on the left under Garden Home Current Events section.

Contact Us: 
Send us your memoirs, photos or suggestions.  All photos will be returned promptly.  Send us a Short Story of some memory of Garden Home along with a photo.

Join the Club! 
Please join us if you’d like to help with printing, postage, events  or research costs.  You’ll receive emails keeping you informed of our progress and events.  We will send a newsletter (with the same information) quarterly for people who prefer to use U.S. mail, please send $10 to cover cost.
