Whew! What a summer we had. It's been too long since I've updated this site! I will be adding pictures, videos, and more details about our great first season here at WPCG.
For the time being, I'll say: exciting things are happening! We are in the midst of planning a huge expansion and revamp of our garden. Stay tuned for more!
If you would like to get involved in this planning, please email walkerparkcommunitygarden@gmail.com

Meeting at the Garden on November 20th at 11:00 am to winterize. Hope to see you there!
ReplyDeleteI had a great time getting the garden ready for winter today and it was wonderful to see everyone! The garden looks great and I am really excited about next year. I will be scan in a new plan to propose to the city based on our notes/ideas. I'll post again as soon as it is ready so everyone can take a look and make comments/suggestions. Thanks again everyone for a really nice and productive visit to the garden!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great work day by committed gardeners and the garden soil should be happy with the mulch. I am already excited about deciding what I want to grow next year. Seed catalogs aren't really too far off.
ReplyDeleteLisa says Parks will hook us up to water IF we fulfill all of the requirements, I can send that info to anyone interested and January or February are fine.
ReplyDeleteI think I will download the application and fill it out
ReplyDeleteI did fill out the application and Khalisa agreed to be second person of contact with the City. Thanks Khalisa! Lisa asked if we were still meeting and I said hopefully in the new year so we can hook some people at seed catalog time.. I sure hope to grow the heirloom beans I grew last year. I have you some seeds Khalisa.
ReplyDeleteHey Sommer, any luck on that new plan?
ReplyDeleteIf we want to recruit any new gardeners how do we communicate with them? or they with us?
ReplyDeleteI read the posts on here from before and Andrea says we are full. Any one keeping up with this blog site?
ReplyDeleteAndrea/Sommer... teach us (WPCG gardeners) how to blog
ReplyDeleteMy first seed catalog arrived. You can plant in February. We don't have a garden. Who cares?
ReplyDeleteCan/will some one update this Blog? The header (?) says UPDATE September 2011.
ReplyDeleteIf we don't get a fence we won't have a garden. IF we ever had a successful garden we might really help the community. I still envision people who need to being able to grow there own.
