The Plant City Commons Community Garden will host a program for growers
All are welcome to be immersed in nature with the upcoming Earth, Wind, and Garden event, on April 9.
It will be hosted by the Plant City Commons Community Garden from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the south side of the Hillsborough Community College – Plant City campus, 2001 E. Cherry St.
The free outdoor event will allow visitors to attend various workshops throughout the day and be educated on ways to better care for nature. There will be plants for patrons to purchase at the campus’ garden, but there will be over 20 vendors who will have things to purchase as well. Food will be provided, as well as live entertainment, activities for children, and garden tours.
The garden is on 3.5 acres of land, and the Plant City club helps to maintain the botanical and community garden section.It was once tended to by agriculture students from the University of Florida.
Workshops are typically held at least once a month and teach how to cultivate different fruits and vegetables. The community also has the opportunity to rent out a bed.
