2012 Jackson Community Gardens Tour!
We had a great time at this year's Community Gardens Tour! The tour took place on Thursday, July 26th from 5:30-8:00 p.m. We visited five of Jackson's community gardens. It was a great group of gardeners and organizers (of all ages) who shared their gardening experiences. This event was a celebration of the hard work of those gardens on the tour and of all the community gardens in Jackson! Their continued effort to make a difference in the Jackson area deserves great recognition. Please continue to support your local community gardens!
2012 Big Seed!
The Big Seed took place on Saturday, May 19, 2012 at the Together We Can Make a Difference house @ 224 W. Wilkins. The event was held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. where small garden starter kits and portable gardens were given away. There was also a Best Pumpkin Plant Contest where children from local schools competed. The event also had a plant sale, free popcorn and lots of support from the Jackson community! Please contact us if you would like to take part in next year's event.
