Minnehaha Avenue Community Garden
Located on Minnehaha Avenue in Minneapolis, MN

The most exciting things are happening in the Greater Longfellow Neighborhood of Minneapolis. The need for creating healthy soil and uncontaminated food and medicinal plants is growing fast. Minnehaha Avenue Community Garden does all of this!

Individual Plot Holders - rent plots and grow a variety of things. In 2004 we had a plot held by the Veterans Home, two "Three Sisters" plots of corn, beans and squash with seeds donated from the White Earth Reservation, many vegetable growers and flower beds. If you would like to be a plot holder at this site email me for contact information.

Medicinal Gardens - were started two years ago by Sandra Arseth who provided all the plants, plant markers, and labor. The harvest from the medicine gardens was shared throughout the community. Tinctures, salves, and vinnegars were made and shared also.

NEW for 2005
We are excited to announce the project Sustainable Medicinals in an Urban Environment. Working with resources from United Plant Savers , local Herbalist and Educator Lise Wolfe, Seedswoman Sandra Arseth, and Educator Kari Tauring, as well as Minnehaha Falls Nursery and Garden Store and other plant sources broadens the scope of what we can accomplish.
