Happy Spring! It is a great time to remind everyone that our annual plant sale will be Saturday, May 17, 2025 from 8 am to Noon.
Our expert gardeners are hand-picking items that will be perfect for a Cape Ann Garden. And did you know ALL proceeds are donated back to local Cape Ann organizations! You can help your garden and help a cause all at once!
Hope to see you there.

Several workshops organized by one of the members are the source of several of the items presented at the Annual Plant Sale, the Annisquam Exchange and the ASC Christmas Fair.
These are a sample of the Collage Cards created by the members this month.
A group of ASC members gather several times during the year to work on Unfinished Projects that have been languishing in sewing baskets, laundry baskets, drawers and closets. And also to share the news of the day., make plans for upcoming workshops to create items for the Christmas Fair.
This video explains a bit about the work of the Annisquam Sewing Circel. We are a group of over fifty-five members who meet from September through June for the friendship of neighbors we might not otherwise see and to organize and hold fund-raising events that support our Cape Ann community. There have been several cookbooks published, many annual Christmas Fairs held in the Annisquam Village Hall and Spring Plant Sales held on the lawn between the Annisquam Exchange and the Village Hall.. The newly added Gourmet Bake Sale, the Friday before the 4th of July, includes beautiful bouquets of flowers from members’ gardens held with the Annisquam Farmers’ Market on the lawn between the Annisquam Exchange and the Village Hall .
The Circle continues its work today and will celebrate its 200th anniversary in 2037.
