BJM ElementaryTopic: Perennials, Annuals, Gardening, Food and Fun with Kids
Address: 302 West Buffalo, but meet on the Court Street side
The BJM garden has both raised beds and a "sheet mulched" in-the-ground garden (est 2010). To meet the multiple uses of the combined garden/playground site, these garden areas are being developed strategically with perennial edibles, herbs, rain garden plants and annual vegetables. Additionally, these gardens are connecting with the Fruit and Vegetable Snack program and in the classroom garden education so the kids get a full-circle of good food exposure.
About the Network Series: The second annual Community & School Garden Network Series is for any Tompkins County resident using gardens as an educational tool when working in a community or school setting or somebody interested in this type of work. Gardens types are not limited to vegetable, ornamental, container, butterfly, flowers or trees. No experience is required. You may take one session or the entire series. Registration not required but preferred - contact Liz Falk erf59@cornell.edu or 272 2292, ext 268.
