| 2015 Community Garden plot |
In 2015 we moved from our apartment to a house and when we changed communities we had to give up our community garden. I did put in raised beds in our yard so if you want to see the gardens from the 2016 season, check out my other blog where I posted an update each month:

| 2016 backyard raised beds |
In 2017 however, the village of Villa Park where we now live, is putting in Community Gardens for the first time and the garden club that I belong to is in Villa Park so we are putting in a demonstration plot where we will try techniques and illustrate ideas for other gardeners. I thought it would be great to document that community garden here. So follow us in the 2017 season as the Garden Club of Villa Park works in its community garden. I hope to interview other community gardeners in the plots and see what there experiences are as well.
We will be doing gardening lectures at the Villa Park Library all summer, so I will post information from those lectures and other related information too!
Stay tuned in the next month for plant suggestions, recipes and other things to get you into the gardening spirit.
