It doesn't have the feel of a public garden, it feels quite personal.

I did notice that each bed had a distinct character and unique group of plants. Each raised bed seemed to be the work of different individuals and/or groups. I will post more when I find out the answer to your question.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-81631793097565115062015-03-03T05:45:27.283-08:002015-03-03T05:45:27.283-08:00I have seen the garden but did not know how it cam...I have seen the garden but did not know how it came about.

The result is such a beautiful garden, and I'm sure residents of the town as well as visitors appreciate this colorful oasis as a place to sit and enjoy. Are the raised beds planted by different groups?

It was a social place enjoyed by residents, families and staff. We had a fire pit and would cook hot dogs for supper-even the frailest resident was helped to hold their own stick in the fire. The night staff loved this activity as everyone slept so well afterwards. Sadly I've just heard our about to open new facility does not have a budget for a garden. More fundraising in my future I think.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12830177691014290662noreply@blogger.com
