Open Source Community Garden - Phase 2!

The Open Source Community Garden is well on it's way to becoming a wonderland! We pulled back the fence, installed 4 wicking bed gardens on the curb, put up a greenhouse to start free seedlings for the garden and neighbors, and set up a community picnic table and hammock for passersby to enjoy.

This weekend, we'll be gearing up the next phase of the community space:

Setting up community composting bins out of wooden pallets Revamping and reinforcing the greenhouse Setting up and decorating a 55-gallon barrel wicking planter demo Starting seedlings to give away Making and decorating signage for the beautiful space. Playing with the baby chickens So many folks are slowing down as they drive by, taking notice. That's what I find so cool about curbside gardens, not only do they peak peoples' interest in growing and gardening, but they make our neighborhoods safer and more beautiful.
