Project Notes

ATF Grant

 In the fall of 2016, Simpsonville Garden Club applied for a grant for Accommodations Tax Funds from the city of Simpsonville. The funds were to be allocated in a manner that would promote future accommodations, growth and tourism back into the city. Simpsonville Garden Club’s goal was to further enhance the aesthetics of our city for all residents and tourists. The garden club had previously restored the gardens of the Simpsonville Police Station in 2013 and installed a large planter at the clock tower in 2016, both of which have been ongoing projects.

Planters in Downtown Simpsonville; Carolina Fence Garden; Veterans Memorial Park

 In January, 2017, the club was awarded almost $10,000 for three projects: Ten large planters with structural evergreens and seasonal color in downtown Simpsonville at the intersection of South Main Street and Curtis near the historic clock tower; Restoration of the Carolina Fence Garden located in front of the train station in Heritage Park with new fencing, native trees, shrubs, grasses and perennials, and a Carolina Fence Garden sign; and Restoration of Veterans Memorial Park by replacing shrubs and plants in one section visible from Main Street and installing shrubs and plants in a new bed at the corner of Crisp Street and Main Street. These three projects were completed in 2017-2018. 

Ongoing Projects

 Simpsonville Garden Club has since continued to apply for and receive grants each year for the ongoing upkeep and enhancement of the civic beautification projects at the Police Station, Planters on Main Street, Veterans Memorial Park and Carolina Fence Garden at Heritage Park. Five additional planters were installed on Main Street in fall 2020. All maintenance work is done by members of the club and the city of Simpsonville Public Works and Parks and Recreation help with watering.
