Riverview Community Garden







In this garden we spend time with our friends, neighbors, and with strangers. We sit with the plants, flowers, vegetables and the earth in our plots. We pull weeds and toil in the soil. We water and we curse the bugs. We stare at the pregnant buds and sprouts. We wait for the blooming and sprouting to come.

From Ivan

Good Evening Gardeners,

I hope you had a great holiday season and are looking forward to the 2010 gardening season.

In preparation for Spring Clean Up, please let us know by January 17, 2010 whether you plan on returning to the garden and if you'd like to be re-assigned to your prior plot.

As you can imagine, we have a long wait list to join our garden so if you struggled to maintain your plot last year or anticipate having other priorities in 2010, please consider moving to a smaller plot or providing your plot to someone on the wait list.

There are also a few keys from the 2009 season still floating around. If you happen to have one, please reach out so we can collect them all.

thanks and best wishes in the new year,

Ivan
