Peace Community Garden is now accepting applications from
area residents who would like individual plots. Plots measure 6 x 10
feet, and are available for $15 for the 2008 growing season. Some seeds
and plants will be available to gardeners.
Gardeners are encouraged to share their excess produce with neighbors
or one of the area food pantries. Last year, the garden produced
in excess of 700 lbs. of vegetables.
If an individual does not want the responsibility of maintaining an
individual plot, but would still like to get involved, we will be
planting some vegetables in common areas. These will be cared for
communally.
For an application or more information, contact Garden Director Diane
Runyan.
