From the Greengirl inbox: Dig into your community garden
Posted on April 5th, 2006 – 2:53 PMBy Jaime Chismar
Got a fav seed site? Going to a killer plant sale? Attending a cool conference?
The growing season is short, so drop me a line: jchismar@startribune.com.
I’d love to know upcoming events in your gardening community and share your gardening resources others.
A new effort called GardenWorks is working to make it easier for people to find their local community garden and to serve as a resource for the garden itself (and existing gardeners). It should prove to be a useful resource for community gardens I think.
If you’re curious to know more, you can get an introduction at: http://www.greeninstitute.org/gardenworks/
Best of luck with the sprouting.
