And so it begins… 🌱
Our Gardyn hydroponic system is now up and running at the SCLM.
We’ll be growing and learning through the summer as we prepare to launch a hydroponics program this fall for those interested in exploring another way to grow.
We expect to see the first signs of growth in the next week, and we’ll be sharing updates as things sprout, grow, and change. Follow along and watch this new library project take root!
A big thank you to the Seward Community Foundationn and the Nourished Communities Food Security Grant for helping make this project possible.
