Please come out and support the Garden in Citrus Heights, enjoy a great dinner, learn about the garden to see if you would like a bed to start your own garden, participate in the silent auction. All proceeds from dinners and auction go back into the garden for improvements and upkeep. Thank you for your support.
So what is the garden all about............. come out and visit. There is a workday on the third Saturday of each month. Come out and get a tour of the place, see the vegetables actually growing, flowers blooming and owners participating to keep the garden growing and expanding.
Let's take a look at the garden.............
......... the location of garden is at the corner of StockRanch Rd & San Juan, Citrus Heights
New parking lot..... blacktop handicap parking with additional parking on packed down gravel - look to the right of the picture you will see Merrill Gardens Senior Living Facility. They are a big supporter of the Garden, they allow the Garden members to use the facilities including the use of a room for their monthly board meeting.
Handicap signs proudly on display
Gates are locked but you can always find out information (one way or another) Check out the weather proof information box which contains just that information about the garden and how to join plus registration form ...........
We are very proud that Dillion Flowers, Troop#144 with the Boy Scouts of America picked the garden to do his Eagle Scout Project. He supervised the design, raised the funds, purchased the matierals and supervised the completion of this great shed. The shed houses the beginnings of a garden library, tools and other materials. This has already been a valuable resource.
Looking out from the Shed and the shade trees to the summer beds........ yes, there are lots of just summer beds........ all types of vegies and flowers in the area also
As you can see the outside of the garden area is also being taken care of ....... the CCC comes about 4-6 weeks and helps with the larger projects...... weed eating around this outside area, helping to put down the pathways and more. Extremely valuable resource!! Also notice the oak trees that are planted outside and the fruit trees planted inside the garden area.
You are looking at several very fruitful beds..........
AUTO TIRES!!! Yes, they are being recycled and used in the common area to grow large vine veggies and fruits (pumpkins, squash, watermelons and more........)
Think you are interested in joining and growing some of your own vegatables, fruits, flowers..... just need to contact us. In this area you can grow a garden year around.
Mark your calendar for October 6 5-7p Spaghetti Dinner.
