Gardening Group in Full Swing
Want a gardening experience (including fresh produce!) but don't have the room?
Free gardening plots are available at the Ternes home.
Grow your own vegetables...and share them with others.
Gardeners are expected to weed and maintain their own plots (and, for safety, to keep their children away from the pond).
