Edison Community Garden - please don't harvest!

The Edison Community Garden is thriving! Please be respectful of our community gardeners' plots and do not harvest their veggies. We have 21 plots where neighbors, parents, community-members have paid to have a spot to garden, and the veggies/harvest belongs to them. If you are interested in having a plot next year, please email edison.community.garden.mailbox@gmail.com

We also have 5 Edison plots that six classes planted last year during Field Day, and we're working on ways to have the Student Green Team and other student groups use these plots in the classroom. If you have ideas, please contact Julie Buchanan, julierbuchanan@gmail.com.

Thanks!
