We visited several community gardens, including:
Saint Isadora Community Garden (at St. Michael's Church)
Manton Avenue Garden, which is rumored to be closing down next year...
Glenham Community Garden, which has an awesome sunshade constructed by Ironworks.
Olneyville Woonasquatucket Riverside Park Community Garden
We also passed by Pearl Street Community Garden, established by the Fertile Underground and masterfully graffitied. Check out some awesome pictures of the site.
We also stopped by a plot of land that is currently maintained by a few urban gardeners but illegally transformed, and basically a free for all garden spot...
Some arugula growing there.
Also.... Raspberries are back!!! The bushes that we have at City Farm are Everbearing, or primocanes, which means that they provide berries once during the early summer, and once around the late summer/fall.
Stay tuned for pictures of the second harvest!! :>
