New garden signs


Thanks to a collaborative effort, we've got a new sign for the garden, complete with a new bench.  Thanks for adding a splash of color to this space.

We also received a sign indicating we are now registered as a USDA People's Garden

WHAT IS A PEOPLE'S GARDEN?

People's Gardens vary in size and type, but all are required to have three components in common. They must benefit the community, in some cases by creating recreational spaces and in others by providing a harvest for a local food bank or shelter. They must be collaborative - that is, the garden must be created and maintained by a partnership of local individuals, groups, or organizations. And third, they should incorporate sustainable practices.
