In case you missed it!

Our city farm and garden tour was on Saturday! The weather held out and our 19 garden sites were on display with their wide variety of vegetables, flowers and some livestock!  Check out our photos on facebook, and this article in the New Haven Independent and this blog post by one of our gardeners!

The Garden Tour is Coming Up!

As you may know, Connecticut NOFA's City Farm and Garden Tour is coming up! I went out and scouted some of our sites yesterday, and discovered that one of our restaurant participants, the Kasbah Garden Cafe (which is offering a 10% discount to tour participants on August 6), is a garden site itself! Stay tuned for more photos from the Community Gardens and check out our facebook for more photos and the City Farm and Garden Tour site for more information!
