My wife Sheila and I are heading off tomorrow to Lehigh University to do a Community Garden Curriculum Training with Betsy Johnson. Sponsored by a group in Allentown PA and the three of us representing the American Community Garden Association. Over forty are registered and we are excited about this training and its impact on the formation of new and revitalization of older community gardens.
We are contemplating doing a similar training at Wiscasset Adult Ed early next year. Might there be any interest in Maine.
These trainings are the nuts and bolts of putting people and organization together to develop a CG and keeping it together and not about growing fruits and vegetables. Trainings and workshops like these have been done throughout the country by ACGA.
HI everyone-- with enough volunteers we are now moving ahead! Please join us! See the details below:
