Grounds Committee

Updated September 24, 2007

Co Chairs: Paul Buckley & Martha Sherburne

For the beauty of the earth...

The Grounds Committee handles all the groundskeeping tasks at First Parish. We mow, prune, rake, plant, weed, water, fertilize, edge, trim, clip, and pick up litter.

If you like to landscape or garden maybe the Grounds Committee is for you.

If you would like to join or want more information, call Paul Buckley or Martha Sherburne.
