Don’t have the space or time to build and maintain your own garden bed? Consider joining a local community garden! There are six community gardens in Eagle County and they are located in Eagle, Colorado Mountain College in Edwards, Eagle-Vail, Bare Roots in Avon, West Vail, and Minturn. When you join a community garden, you have everything you need in the form of raised beds, soil, tools, compost, and a knowledgeable gardening community that can help you reach your all growing goals! This grand adventure of building your gardening skills awaits, but don’t delay! The community garden plots fill fast, so contact them to reserve your spot today!
20 Great Adventures is a mini blog series by Walking Mountains Science Center’s Youth Programs staff to celebrate the organization’s 20th anniversary of providing natural science education to the Eagle Valley.
