Heather Moody Holman Elected President of Andover Garden Club

At this year’s Andover Garden Club annual meeting, outgoing president Tina Girdwood (on right in photo) passed the reins to Heather Moody Holman. The incoming president, a well-known local realtor who grew up in Andover and has been active in a number of civic and business organizations, is a second-generation club member: her late mother, Barbara Moody, was a member for many years.

Founded in 1927, the Andover Garden Club is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that encourages the study and practice of horticulture, landscape design, and floral design; aids in the beautification of the town of Andover; and helps protect and conserve natural resources. A member of the Garden Club Federation of Massachusetts, Inc., and National Garden Clubs, Inc., the club provides both financial and hands-on support to a variety of municipal, educational, and environmental organizations throughout the region.

The Andover Garden Club welcomes new members. Information about joining is available from membership cochair Liz Bell (belles810@gmail.com, 978-475-3021).
