please join us for a garden party Stroll to benefit the chore service and to celebrate our 28th year!

For the past 11 years, Chore Service has held our annual Garden Party, and major fundraiser, showcasing the gardens of our neighbors here in the Northwest Corner. While we are unable to safely be together in one of our beautiful gardens this year, we have decided to bring the gardens to you for you and your loved ones to enjoy as often as you like in the safety and comfort of your own home.

We have many more Garden Party pictures than can fit in our Garden Party Stroll booklet located below, so please be sure to watch the special video of additional memories from past celebrations which can be found on the link above or at the end of this page.

Get comfortable, sit back and relax as you take a stroll with us through the beautiful gardens from previous gatherings. As an added bonus, we have included a sneak peek of next year’s outstanding gardens.

Thank you for taking a Garden Party Stroll with us. Enjoy and please stay safe!

Each year the demand for Chore’s services grows, and this year is no different. The Garden Party and our Annual Appeal are the heart of our fundraising efforts. While cancelling our primary fundraiser, the Garden Party, is quite a hardship, it is necessary during such uncertain times.

Year after year our Sponsors generously support this event. Today we ask you to consider joining them by contributing at one of the seven sponsorship levels or make a non-sponsor donation so that we can best support our Chore clients. Our clients, who have limited incomes, pay only what they are able, so your donation goes a long way.


All supporters will be acknowledged on our website and in our Fall 2020 Newsletter.

Your contribution is tax deductible.
