On Wednesday, August 22, 2012 the Nantucket Preservation Trust was honored at the Nantucket Garden Club’s Annual Meeting with a Garden Club of America Award for its “significant contribution to historic preservation” and for its “leadership and dedication to protect and preserve Nantucket’s historic architecture and landscapes through educational programs, apprenticeships, scholarships, research, house histories, and preservation easements.” We are truly honored to receive this award and also salute the Nantucket Garden Club for its many years of work to educate about the island’s natural and man-made landscape as well as its tremendous outreach to the Nantucket community.
