Sorry for the delay! Guthrie and I have honestly accidentally found ourselves involved in a community garden. We met a wonderful neighbor through the sustainability community and now I have jumped right into to this wonderful project: Paradise Community Garden / Jardín Paraíso. It is beautiful, bilingual communal garden next to South City Cafe that just started last year. It is democratically run and any and all can come and pitch in. You come, you reap the rewards, you get a say, and you connect in English and in Spanish to some wonderful community members. My sense of community has increased tremendously and I have met some wonderful people. Guthrie is getting involved by working with others from Powderhorn 365 to document the goings-on at the garden through photography. This is also wonderful because we are able to bring our excess compost that the worms can't eat up to the garden as well. This is helping us to learn more about gardening, meet with neighbors, be a part of a community beautification project, and compost more! Please come and join us Tuesday 5-7 and Saturdays 2-4!
Peace!
