Youth Sports and Healthy Families Festival 2015
The Community Gardens
participated in the Youth Sports and Healthy Families Festival again this year
on Saturday, August 22. The Festival promoted simple, structured, and
spontaneous activity by encouraging youth to discover and pursue unrealized
potential, contributing to a healthy lifestyle. Some
of the activities included lawn games, racquetball, disc golf, snorkeling,
inner-tube water polo, tricycle course, arts and crafts, and a climbing
wall.
The Community Gardens was
located in the Activities Center which was the hub of the Healthy Family
experience where families could explore colors/flavors of better food options,
create and enjoy healthy snacks, and learn about organic gardening. Our table featured fresh fruits from the
Gardens, information on organic gardening/classes, photos of our gardens, and
general information on how to start your own home garden with the right amendments. We also had a group of tables where children
could decorate peat pots with stickers, markers, crayons, sequins, and glitter. Once decorated, they would proceed to another
area where they would fill the peat pot with soil and plant their choice of a
basil seedling, sunflower and bean seeds, along with instructions on how to
care for.
Like the other
activities, our tables were quite busy and it was refreshing to see the
childrens’ interest in planting.

Arbor Day 2015
Quarterly Meeting March 21, 2015
Thank you to all the members that attended our first quarterly meeting for 2015. We had an amazing turn out with lots of delicious food. A big thank you to the Hurley's for barbecuing and to Hugo the Snake Guy who not only discussed rattlesnakes but brought a live rattlesnake for everyone to view. Thank you to Anne Duffy who gave everyone a quick talk on the "Do's and Don'ts" of the compost, a brief video can be seen on our Blog. Did you miss out in seeing the rattlesnakes? No fear we have a video below for your enjoyment.

Arbor Day 2014
Thank you to all the garden members who contributed to make Arbor Day 2014 a success! A huge thank you to Sandy for putting it all together! There were five different “stations” at the gardens for our visitors to enjoy and to learn more about the gardens. The butterfly garden, the weather station, composting, outreach and the craft table. Everyone who participated had a great time!
Health Families/ Youth Sports Festival 2014
The Community Gardens participated in the City’s Healthy Families/Youth Sports Festival on Saturday, August 17. The Festival promoted simple, structured, and spontaneous activity by encouraging youth to discover and pursue unrealized potential, contributing to a healthy lifestyle. Just some of the activities included, Boxing, SCUBA, Paddleboarding, Snorkeling, 3-wheel trike riding, Dance, and Skateboarding.
The Community Gardens group was located in the Activities Center which was the hub of the Healthy Family experience where families could explore colors/flavors of better food options, create and enjoy healthy snacks, and learn about organic gardening. Our table featured fresh fruits from the Gardens, information on organic gardening/classes, photos of our gardens, and general information on how to start your own home garden with the right amendments. We also had a very popular group of tables where kids/adults could decorate small cups with stickers/buttons/feathers, etc. Once completed, they would fill with seed starter soil and plant sunflower seeds, straight from our own pods grown at the Gardens, to take home and watch grow. This was a fun event for all that participated and we hope to enjoy again next year.
