This is the begining of an exciting project for Keego Harbor, Michigan. An interest in community building and encouraging folks to start their own vegetable garden, has spurred on this endeavor. The first step is to research and plan.
The Purpose of the Keego Harbor Community Garden(s) is to provide an experience for multi-age participants to create an organic vegetable garden. The intent of this project is to instill community pride and offer a hands-on learning experience while promoting organic gardening practices.
The National Garden Association supports this concept by noting
"Community gardens provide a source of food, add aesthetic value, encourages physical activity, helps preserve cultural identity, and most importantly, cultivates neighborhood relationships."
