THE GLEN ELLYN HISTORICAL SOCIETY Established 1969
History in the making
History Park landscape plan (continued)
Highlights of the landscape plan include features such as:
- A plaza at the corner of Main Street and
Geneva Road with brick pavers, flag poles,
benches and gas lanterns
- Trees, bushes and perennials appropriate
to the 1800s
- A vegetable and herb garden behind Stacy’s
Tavern Museum
- Shaded walkways connecting the Plaza and
Stacy's Tavern Museum
Phase one of the implementation will begin next month, depending on the weather and the avail-ability of volunteers. While skilled work will be handled by professional landscapers, many parts of this project will be implemented through the efforts of Historical Society members and others who want to volunteer their time. Interested in helping? Give us a call at 630-858-8696 or email us at info@gehs.org
For the professional work and the purchase of materials, we need to raise $65,000 as quickly as possible. If you are able to make even a small contribution to help beautify the north gateway to Glen Ellyn, click here for a pledge card.
