Minnehaha
Avenue Community Garden
Located on Minnehaha Avenue in Minneapolis, MN
Allowable through the generosity of the Land Owner
Individual
Plot Holders - A modest plot fee covers the land owner's taxes.
In exchange, neighbors are able to grow a variety of things from
food to flowers to medicine. In 2004 we had a plot rented and worked
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 Wolff,
Seedswoman Sandra Arseth, and Educator Kari Tauring, as well as
Minnehaha
Falls Nursery and Garden Store and others broadens the scope
of what we can accomplish.
