The Garden Is Open To Families, Youth Of All Ages, Scouting And Youth Groups!
The Children's Community Garden (CCG) is a new program geared for involving area gardeners in mentoring youth in the art and joy of gardening. Gardening is not only good exercise, but also provides wonderful opportunities to connect to the land, develop appreciation for living things, inspires stewardship through planting a seed and nurturing the plant throughout the season - thus reaping the benefits of fresh vegetables, flowers and herbs! This CCG project is open to participants of all ages! If you have never gardened or if you have no outdoor space for a garden, please call 507-662-5064 to adopt a plot today!! Volunteers are welcome to stop out at anytime to help with garden planting in the spring - weeding, watering and harvesting in the summertime - and garden cleanup in the fall. Participants are responsible for planting and tending their 4' X 8' garden plot within the Children's Garden. Stop by frequently to see new photos added as the "garden grows"!! |
