Over the past month, we have made progress in revitalizing the Department of Nutrition garden behind the Winthrop University Educational Community Garden. There is however still a good deal of work to do. Below is a list of the tasks we are focusing on:
- Finish Removing grass and weeds from 3 raised beds.
- Add soil to the newly cleaned-out beds.
- Remove debris from the garden area.
- Mow and trim along the fence and beds.
- Plant crops.
While the address is 954 Constitution Blvd., GPS takes folks to the Cherry Road parking lot. The entrance to the garden is between the traffic circle and Cherry Road, across the street from the RH District 3 Football stadium on Constitution Blvd. Parking is limited in the garden. There is parking across the street or in the parking lot at Winthrop Facilities Management on Columbia Ave. From there, it is a short walk down Constitution to the garden. Teams are welcome but please submit registration for each individual, so we have an accurate head count.
