Introducing the Build-A-Garden Program
Posted by Kathleen Banfield on February 13, 2007 at 5:51 pm

Do you want your own garden? Build-a-Garden is a new program at The Food Project designed to get more people to grow their own food in Boston. We will build you a raised bed garden and plant it with vegetables.

The program will provide you with:
–A raised bed garden including soil and compost
–Seeds and transplants
–Your own Grower’s Manual
–Trainings and drop-in days on our Urban Learning Farm at Shirley Place, Roxbury MA

For more details, please download this brochure (PDF).

    I was searching the net for “raised bed gardening” when I came across this site. This is such a wonderful idea!!!! Truly amazing. I can’t believe you build it and stock it. I only wished I lived in an area where this was available. I wish you much success. Happy gardening and healthy eating!
