Community Garden planning starts today

If you are interested in participating in the Lawrence Community Garden project, there’s a planning meeting today.

The meeting is scheduled for 4 p.m. today at the Lawrence Public Library gallery, 707 Vt.

Organizers are Rachael Perry and Sarah Wertzberger. For more information, e-mail Rachael at rachaelpea@gmail.com.

They say there are a number of ways to get involved:

• You can have your own plot to grow produce and flowers.

• You can share a plot with other gardeners.

• You can help with upkeep such as mowing, weeding and fence maintenance.

• You can help with work days and special occasions, such as potlucks or contests.

• Or maybe you are interested in starting another community garden in town.

The Lawrence Community Garden is in the 900 block of Mississippi Street.
