Most of us are aware of the idea of making garden spots in the midst of the city, and the movement to grow fresh food locally.
There is a garden plot in the Western Avenue Greenway, which has been in use several years as a communal plot to raise food for local food banks. This year we will be offering plots for individual use. The plot size is 10 feet by 12 feet, large enough to grow fresh produce for the summer. The plots will be assigned on a first come, first served basis. Depending on the number of people applying there may be more than one plot available per family.
The garden is located in the Greenway segment between Laura and Bradley. The garden area is accessible from the alley and parking space is available.
If you are interested, please call Martha at 674.4500 for more information.
