The phrase “Community Garden” can have many meanings and bring up different ideas, depending on to whom you were speaking. Every community garden has its unique objectives; however, they have been shown to provide the following benefits: education and training, increased nutrition, improved physical and mental health, addressing food security, creating employment, and serving as a common place for diverse and inclusive sharing and development. The majority of those involved in community gardens consider them to be a meeting place for creating healthier societies, and we agree 100% with that sentiment.
We invite you to join us in making Albert County a better place to live and experience the many benefits of growing your own food with a group of people eager to share and learn from each other.
