Tessa Garden Carbondale, Colorado!!!!
March 15, 2010
The creation of the Tessa Garden in Carbondale is under way! For the past couple months we have been working very hard on planing the life of this garden and bringing it into this amazing community. We deeply appreciate Patty Phelan for allowing us to use her property and water for the site, and it is beautiful!
The mission of this Garden is alike that of Tessa's Garden in Santa Fe. We want to provide the community of Carbondale, and the Roaring Fork Valley, with a place to learn how to grow organic food in a sustainable way. In effect being able to provide food for ourselves and relieving some of our dependency on outside sources. By becoming a part of the conscious efforts toward environmental awareness and our impact can only help our community and the world.
We are aware of the people in our valley who are struggling to feed themselves. At Tessa Garden we are growing nutritious food for our community, to give to everyone especially people who could use a hand. Eventually we will be hosting community potlucks to bring everyone together!
We are always looking for worker bees!! So if you seem interested in digging up some soil, planting some seeds, and contributing some time to this garden please contact us, and please bring the kids, youth is our greatest resource.
