Alice Ijams garden demonstration site taking shape

Volunteers work to fill raised gardening beds. 

What's new at Ijams, you ask? 

We are relocating all of our greenhouse, organic garden and compost demonstration sites to one central location.

The site will be dedicated to the late Alice Yoe Ijams, an avid gardener, who tended her own greenhouse here over 70 years ago.  

Located beside the solar panels on the Universal Trail, the site is beginning to take shape. Last week volunteers helped fill the raised beds.

Peg Beute, our own avid gardener, will be hosting volunteer work days every Wednesday in August from 9 a.m. to noon. It's a good chance to see the site take shape and get your hands dirty. Plus, Peg will provide  the refreshments.

Special thanks to all volunteers who have helped so far!
