Decorative Colonial-Style Garden

The Warwick Township Historical Society has created an 18th Century Colonial-style garden at the Moland House. It is intended to be an ornamental garden, using plants of the period when available.  The garden is laid out in a symmetrical pattern, and features an antique brick walkway.

The focal point of the garden is a handsome gazebo, copied from one at Colonial Williamsburg.   It was built by Bill Marek, the master carpenter who restored the woodwork at the Moland House.  The planting is being done by Steve Forostiak.  He would be happy to put any volunteers to work.  You can contact Steve at:  frosty171@verizon.net

An engraved brick program has proved very popular. This is an excellent way to permanently honor a loved one.  Bricks are $50 each and the form can be downloaded here, or requested from Murrie Gayman at: greeneside@comcast.net or 215-343-8485.

This new Colonial-style garden at the Moland House makes a beautiful setting for weddings and other social occasions.  For information, contact Murrie at 215-343-8485.

You are cordially invited to watch our garden grow!

Honor your loved one and support the Colonial-style Garden at the Moland House with an engraved brick.

Each engraved brick will be engraved with up to 3 lines of text, then installed within the new garden pathways as a lasting tribute.
Download the form here, fill it out and mail it to the address on the form. Your donation is also tax deductible.
