On September 28, join us to tour the garden at Franklin Steele Square — and apply for a garden plot near you.
Are you interested in growing your own food and flowers? The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) is building community gardens in parks throughout Minneapolis, where residents can start planting at individual and shared garden plots next spring!
Join us on September 28 to tour one of the first MPRB community gardens and find out about other garden locations throughout the city. Enjoy light refreshments, get gardening tips and ideas, and apply for your own plot.
Everyone is welcome: Seasoned gardeners, beginners, children, family, friends and neighbors!
