Giving Thanks for Another Gardening Season

A tall sunflower plant blooms against the sky; a garden and neighboring house are visible around and behind it.As we mark the end of another gardening season, many of us are pausing to give thanks and celebrate seasonal bounty.

As a community gardener, I am grateful for the continued generosity of the landowner of my garden, my garden leader who shares so much of her time to keep the garden running, and my fellow gardeners who help keep it maintained through the season. And I’m grateful that the Community Garden Coalition organization has backed my garden with supplies, insurance, water, compost, straw and other support.

And, of course, I’m thankful to all our supporters out there who have donated money, time or other resources!

This was our 40th year as an organization! We thank you for being a part of that, and we hope you’re planning for a great garden next year.
