Gardening Keeps Kids Healthy!Tending a Garden Benefits the Body, Mind and Spirit of Children and Adults. Creekside has 3 beautiful raised beds available for use and enjoyment at the Rideout Community Garden.
This a chance for you and your family to get together in a fun and meaningful way by forming a garden club! I would like to kick-off our club this Monday, June 29th at 5:00 pm.I am planning summer garden activities every other week for the kids to come and participate. There will also be a garden board with drop-in activities if you want to garden on your own time and schedule.
This is open to all parents and kids who would like to participate. We need parents helping for the first meeting since it will be a work day. We need to complete our beds with lining to keep the voles away, fill with dirt, put together irrigation kits, and even plant! Bring work gloves and mosquito spray.
We need plants! I will move the asparagus over from our other site and have sunflower seeds. It would be great if everyone brought a favorite vegetable/ herb plant(s) or easy to grow seeds with them. The Rideout Community Gardner's are setting up a buyers club at Tahoe Tree soon and this will offer everyone 40-50% discounts. I'll keep you posted when that happens.
If you have any questions call me at 386-3683. Keep it green and local and join in on our community garden fun!
