Civic Beautification Awards
​
Since 1998, The Garden Club of Harwich has been awarding annual Civic Beautification Awards to both a residential and a commercial property in the Town of Harwich. These awards are given in recognition of their contribution to making Harwich a beautiful place to live, work and play!
​
Each year club members nominate beautiful properties and the committee visits and votes on the best. The awards are presented at the October Garden Club meeting.
