So, summer is just around the corner (don't be fooled by the blizzard outside), and our page is live again!

We're rolling out so many cool projects this year - a 1400sqft hoophouse, expanding the Gibbs House garden, a community garden at Stadium Drive, an aquaponics system, more vermicomposting, compost tea brewing... the list goes on and on! Excited? We sure are!
