Update from Hinton!

The Hinton Community Garden Society will be holding the AGM and membership drive on Feb 23. Both greenhouses are up, thanks to hundreds of volunteer hours! All the garden boxes have been built and the soil has been delivered and is ready to go. The board has developed into a very high functioning group and it is very collaborative with diverse skill sets.

We have applied for an Evergreen-Walmart green grant to help us with phase 2. Next on the list is solar panels, composting toilet, composting system for greenhouses, landscaping, including planting native species on site and building a picnic/gathering space.

Our goal of being ready to plant in spring of 2011 is a reality. We can't wait!!
