SHGC members maintain several ongoing civic projects.  Projects include the care and maintenance of Wallbridge Rose Garden in Taylor Park, Millburn Community Garden, Thomas Edison Greenhouse in West Orange, the window boxes at the Short Hills train station, and more.

The Conservation Committee aims to protect and restore the local landscape through education and action.  We educate our members on current conservation issues and promote respect for natural resources and responsibility for environmental stewardship. We work with various local organizations whose programs complement those of the Conservation Committee. 

Through workshops, speakers, and flower shows, our Floral Design Committee helps members, regardless of their experience or expertise, learn and appreciate the principles and elements of flower arranging, from the basic to the complex, and inspires creative and decorative floral design.
