The Live Oaks Garden Club recently presented checks to the Brunswick Urban Redevelopment Agency and the St. Simons Land Trust. The contributions will fund irrigation for the newly planted live oak trees in the Mary Ross Waterfront Park and support the Land Trust’s Canopy Campaign. Established as a non-profit educational corporation in 1997, the Live Oaks Garden Club actively contributes to beautification projects in Glynn County. They maintain the butterfly garden in Demere Park, have provided funds for the new plantings at Jekyll Square in Brunswick and continuing contributions to the St. Simons Land Trust for ongoing conservation efforts. Additional beautification projects they have supported over the years include the John Gilbert Nature Trail, landscaping for the Frederica/Demere roundabout, and live oak trees along Demere Rd.
