May 24 - Community Gardens!

 

Join us on

Tuesday, May 24 at 5 p.m. at the Logan High School north parking lot

Local food production can reduce carbon emissions and alleviate food insecurity. On La Crosse’s north side, a Seeding a Legacy of Healing grant from the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration supports a cluster of four small neighborhood gardens to help provide food, community, and self-sufficiency experience and education. The much larger Kane Street Community Garden has produced an average of 30,000 pounds of healthy, organic produce per year since its founding in 1998 with mostly volunteer labor.

We’ll learn about and tour these gardens with our guests, Tamra Dickinson and Todd Huffman.

There is no registration required. We will START AT THE LOGAN HIGH SCHOOL NORTH PARKING LOT, drive or bike to the cluster of gardens, ending at the Kane Street garden.

Masks are optional for this outdoor activity. Social distancing is recommended.
