Please join KFNA for the final garden clean-up of the Pleasant Community Garden on Saturday June 1 from 10 AM-noon, and then stay and enjoy a piece of pizza with us as a “thank you†for the help and the last decade of communal gardening in this spot.
Come take down the garden boxes, remove the bunny fencing, and help us move plants to a safer space on the property. It’s been a beautiful 10 years from breaking ground and creating this space–to breaking bread at garden dinners and the outdoor oven. Besides the basic crops, we have also grown Cascade hops, oyster mushrooms, and three generations of honey bees. Thank you to the Center for Performing Arts for donating the land to KFNA for the past 10 years; it has been an educational, and inspirational community space.
