Garden Team Needed: GreenThumb Harvest Fair and First Annual Urban Farmy Olympics Announced

Represent our garden on September 12th from noon to 6p.m. This is an urgent appeal – If we can build a team this week, we can register to compete and see how our crops and skills measure up against other city gardens. We’ll need at least two seniors over 60 and two youths under 21 and everyone in between who wants to join in and support us.

Once a year, gardeners from all over the city come together to show off what they’ve grown this season.

Check our new garden calendar on this site for this and other events, but don’t miss this one. Here are the details:
