There's something relaxing about a community garden in Colwood.
The garden is kid friendly and a great place for families. It's important to learn where our food comes from.
For the greenhorns, or black thumbs, depending on how unsuccessful people start off, there is plenty of information in the garden. Charts are posted in the tool shed when to plant and perhaps more importantly, where to plant.
Growing season gets into full swing in May and there are still a few plots open. Access to the garden costs $20. annually with a $10 deposit. That covers the cost of insurance, water and tools, all of which are provided.
The garden plots are located in the Seeds of Progress community garden at Pilgrim United Church, 3319 Painter Rd. in Colwood. Of the 32 plots most of them are 100 square feet although there is some variety.
