IDEAS FROM OUR VISIONING SESSION

If you would like help create The AREA by implementing your project or making any of the ideas below HAPPEN, please contact us!

Note for hall/school house rental: Meetings or workshops on the site cost $40.00/hr (discounts for full day and members’).  If you are a food group, we offer a garden plot to your group free of charge.  We encourage your group to place a prominent sign at your garden plot with a description of your gardening project.  Young and old visitors of The AREA are proving to be enthusiastic learners of all things growing.
