COMMUNITY SERVICE

Century Gardens is a charitable and giving corporation.  Over the years, we have partnered with many non-profit and community organizations to help advance their causes by donating landscape packages, holding fund raisers, and volunteering our time.

Elm Grove Elementary Butterfly and Bird Garden

Century Gardens was selected to design and construct a bird and butterfly garden through the fund raising efforts of the Elm Grove PTA and Kingwood Garden Club. The construction and ground work was completed by Century Gardens, and planting day was staffed by volunteers throughout the community. The butterfly garden features wheelchair accessible, raised planters with plants that support the life cycles of various butterflies. The bird garden features native plants that provide food and shelter. This project was featured in the local papers.
