Community Garden

Food brings family and community together, so why not grow food and herbs together as well. Gardening for wellness-the benefits to home growing are tremendous as every aspect of one’s nature is nurtured: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

We are seeking folks who would like to be part of the community garden team. As a team we will be doing the following:

1. Creating a community space for us to share in teachings, planting, harvesting, and preserving practices
2. Creating the physical space-garden beds, benches, planting trees, pathways, maybe even a little greenhouse!!!
3. Planting-includes seedlings, planting, digging, watering, nurturing
4. Harvesting- harvesting days, when to pick, what to pick, how to save seeds
5. Preserving-dehydrating, essential oil making, teas, canning, cooking
6. Together protecting and nurturing the space and all the living things within the garden

Our garden will focus on herbs, flowers, fruit trees and some vegetables. This is a learning garden for us to practice and learn best ways to grow, companion planting, harvesting and preserving practices, and various uses of food. Ex; Rosemary can be used for skin creams, cleaning products, clearing energy and for savoury dishes.
