Puyallup Herald Features Puyallup's Community Garden

Please click HERE to view the wonderful article by Joan Cronk on our wonderful garden, published this past June!

Now that our growing season is coming to an end, many of us are pulling our plants up, covering our ground, or perhaps starting to think about a winter cover crop to plant.

If you have ideas on how to develop the garden further, make the place more beautiful, or feel more a part of the garden community, feel free to contact Kathy by emailing puyallup.community.garden@gmail.com (link is also at the top right corner of this blog).

This is a shameless plug, I know, but here are some links that were written for The Melon Online about local gardening and Farmer's Markets that you might find interesting:

Thanks to all the wonderful people who cultivated their plot.

Let's continue to Live, Learn, and Grow Green.

August Garden Potluck Pictures

Garden plot holders had a wonderful time gathering to talk about this season's positives and negatives, get to know each other better, eat delicious food from the garden, roast some hot dogs, and pull some weeds.

Those of us who attended (see the pictures below!) loved the chance to network and develop a sense of community, and I, for one, look forward to many more years of garden potlucks!

Thanks to everyone for the wonderful food!
