Garden 2 You Farmers Market 10/14

Posted in: Madison Park

Good evening!

The next fall date of the Garden 2 You farmer’s market is already here – next Friday, October 14!

I am attaching the flyer in case you need it to pass along…thank you very much to all of you who have already donated containers for plants, and who have been spreading the word about this community effort! I would love to have a few folks signed up to have booths at the market (contact me for a registration form!), and/or donating some produce from their own gardens.

 

We have our own crop of tomatoes, okra, fresh greens, herbs, fall vegetable plants and more to sell, thanks to the efforts of the “Gifted Gardeners” TR horticulture class and our partners at Jail North. Do come by to see our “Woolly Pocket” wall gardens, the newest addition to our garden spaces at the Marion Diehl Center…you’ll be amazed!

 

Please contact me any time if you have questions about Garden 2 You, or about how YOU can help! Thank you again for your support of the market, the health of your neighborhood, and the Therapeutic Recreation Summer Camp Scholarship Fund –

 

All the best “green” wishes to you,
