Jim Close Community Garden
During the months of August and September, 2024, City Market in Buena Vista donated $1 for each reusable shopping bag sold to our Community Garden!
The Jim Close Community Garden was chosen again as the recipient of donations from bags sold in February and March of 2025! We will be receiving a donation around July for those sales.
These funds will be used for maintenance and improvements to the garden which will be apparent in the 2025 Spring Growing Season!
Thank you to City Market!
The community garden is a place to raise fresh vegetables and enjoy the fruits (or veggies!) of your labor. With watering and fertilizing provided, all you have to do is plant, weed and harvest! 4’x4′ raised plots are available to church members, the general public and community groups. There are 24 plots in total. The cost is by donation.
2025 – How to Participate in the Garden:
There are still a few plots available in the back row of the Community Garden. If you would like a plot, please call Patty Oulette at 860-463-2181. She will coordinate assigning them. The suggested donation to garden is $20 per plot for the season. This helps cover the expense of water and maintenance. Please bring donations to the church office on Monday, Wednesday or Thursday between 9:00 am and 12:00 pm. We also have a short registration form to fill out at that time.
