So, summer is just around the corner (don't be fooled by the blizzard outside), and our page is live again!

We're rolling out so many cool projects this year - a 1400sqft hoophouse, expanding the Gibbs House garden, a community garden at Stadium Drive, an aquaponics system, more vermicomposting, compost tea brewing... the list goes on and on! Excited? We sure are!

We'll be using this page to keep you posted on our projects, events we throw, workshops we host, and volunteer days out at the garden, so keep tabs on us! In the meantime, we've got a ton of 2012 content sitting in the archives, so look forward to that!
