Need a place to garden?

Posted on April 8, 2017 by Gary Haliski

The Santa Clara Community Garden, located on River Road behind St. Matthews Episcopal Church, is about full for the coming growing season. Santa Clara Community Organization and Huerto de la Familia manage the site made available by the church.

This coming year garden plans include demonstration composting and soil preparation. More information will be forthcoming when specific dates and times are set for workshops.

The few remaining plots are available at half-price ($30 for the year) because they are partially shaded. Contact Peter at 541-321-0798 for more information.
