This afternoon the Magnuson Children’s Garden is hosting its Fifth Annual “Blues for Food” fest:
A day-long benefit concert for the P-Patch Trust, (which) supports local food banks, shelters, and hot meals programs. Free gardening fun for the whole family during the afternoon hours of the concert.
Those hours are noon- 4 p.m.
More good news – the Magnuson Community Garden won one of five $4,000 grants from DeLoach Vineyards, an organic winemaker.
The national prizes were awarded to the gardens garnering the most votes.
Thanks to you, the Community Garden will be able to build disabled-access garden beds in the P-Patch and install educational signage throughout the site. This will create more opportunities for gardeners of all ages and abilities to grow their own food, and will make it easier for each and every visitor to the Community Garden to learn about the 6 distinctly different areas within it as they stroll though its trails and pathways!
