Garden plots are open to residents for individual gardening and community gardening projects. Each Garden plot is 10 ft. The cost to rent the plots is $25/season, and includes open use of the land, water, and tools on hand. Often, free plants and seeds become available throughout the season. Ethical harvesting is encouraged. By this, the Holden Community Garden Committee has asked that each partic

Leaning uprooted tree on the Punny Path at the back of the Community Garden. It was noticed after hours yesterday, but has been reported to DPW and TM’s office. Caution tape is in place today. Hopefully the forestry division or Mother Nature takes it down soon. For now, use caution and avoid walking on this part of the grounds.
