We're Approved!!!

Well everyone, the idea of a beautiful community garden in Southwood is starting to become reality. How exciting!!

At the CDD meeting this past Thursday night at the Southwood Community Center, Wayne Toothman championed our effort and we were finally given land-use approval!  Those of us that were at the meeting were ready to pull out our shovels and start digging, but we decided to save the digging for the dedication/ground-breaking ceremony on May 18th. Be on the lookout for more information. We want everyone there with us!

Our efforts will now be focused on finalizing our financial plan, planning our infrastructure, and calling on all the help we can get. Now is the time to join us at the meetings to be a part of the discussions and add your "two-cents" regarding plot rental, design and etc.

Join us at our next meeting, Tuesday, April 19th in front of Early's (if it's too hot or raining, we'll be in Subway).
