All Summer – Educational Garden @ the Town Community Gardens (to the east side of Herbert T. Clark House) 

Posted on April 30, 2024January 30, 2025

Two plots have been donated by Parks & Recreation to allow GPIP the opportunity to show how to grow vegetables both in the ground and in pots. One plot will be devoted to the education of planting potatoes while one plot will offer more traditional vegetables.  All produce from both gardens will be donated to the self-service Foodbank in Glastonbury. The gardens open on 4/27 and will close on 10/6.  Planting will happen after the last frost. The garden will be open at various times (to be determined & posted) for viewing the garden and answering questions. Help is needed from members and volunteers all summer long. Offer an hour or more anytime during the summer. We’re near a shaded area so you can bring your chair and read while enjoying the garden.
