Room To Grow

Picture

We have 56 beds and will be expanding more. We plan on providing kits to the public by donation.
Ten (10) plots of various sizes are planned for the garden project each year. If we find the demand for garden plots to be greater than 10, they will be provided as funds become available for each section.

Future Enhancements

Picture

There are long range plans for future enhancements to the garden. The garden will be used to encourage all ages in the art of gardening.  It will be a quality meeting place where socializing and sharing of gardening techniques and discussing normal garden problems. Picnics can occur for the invited public to share in the food produced and it will be a place to have fun. Picnic tables or benches would support such events. 


We are putting in auto sprinklers to help make sure the beds get enough water due to our aired climate.

We are landscaping our large site with flowering plum and cherry trees and new grass.  Across the north fence will also be flowering plum trees and flowering crabapple trees.  We planted two apple trees and two cherrie trees, next year they should bear fruit.

Besides the raised beds, we have decided to place (4) in ground vegetable beds to grow more produce for the Asotin County Food Bank.  We will be planting carrots, Walla Walla sweet onions (4 thousand starts), another bed just for tomatoes and another one for vine type crops such as cukes, squash, peas and some corn.  Individuals will have the opportunity to grow these in these areas instead of the raised beds.  This will give the gardener more room to grow delicate veggies.

We plan to have more events at the garden, one is our grand opening in June.

Some suggested a victory garden specifically to grow flowers for u-cut bouquet's for a small donation to help us continue our monthly operation.



Hoping to teach both the young and old in making healthy food choices and healthy earth choices
