Sussex Gardeners decorate Zwaanendael Museum for holidays

December 8, 2020

During the week of Nov. 30, the Rehoboth Beach-based Sussex Gardeners completed the installation of outdoor and indoor holiday decorations at the Zwaanendael Museum at 102 Kings Highway in Lewes.

Based on the theme, Lighting the Way, this year’s decorations utilize plant material and holiday objects to illustrate various sources of light including lanterns, lightships, lighthouses, starlight and luminarias. The museum’s decorations are presented in conjunction with Lewes Lights, a community event in which the city’s residents decorate their home exteriors for the holiday season.

Founded in 1937 as the Nassau Garden Committee, the  Sussex Gardeners brings together more than 50 members of the community who have an interest in the fine arts of gardening, landscape design, floral design and horticulture. The group’s community outreach includes programs in garden therapy, conservation and civic beautification.
