\"\"I wanted to inform your neighborhood association that the Boise Urban Garden School is providing a new education series to assist in developing new community gardens in the Boise area.\u00a0 The City of Boise is very supportive in this endeavor and would like to have interested parties take the course to ensure the future success of these new gardens.\u00a0 We have seen an increase in people starting Community Gardens in the City, but they never really get to the second year.\u00a0 Many are abandon and quickly become eyesores in the neighborhoods.\u00a0 The class we are offering this fall will help groups form a structure to support many years of successful gardening.<\/p>\n

There are many benefits to having a Community Garden in your neighborhood.\u00a0 They have a way of bring the neighborhood together which in turn can lower crime rates, provide a gathering spot for the residents, and increases the pride in the neighborhood.<\/p>\n

We are having an informational meeting on October 5th at the Wright Congregational Church at 7:00 PM explaining the course to interested parties.\u00a0 If residents in your neighborhood have shown an interest in forming a community garden, we would like them to attend.\u00a0 It may be good for your association members to attend just to see what community gardens are all about.\u00a0 The church is located at 4821 Franklin (at the corner of Franklin and Orchard).\u00a0 This is also where the Boise Urban Garden School is located, so you can see a community garden layout.\u00a0 I have attached a flyer for the event in PDF format, so you can email it to anyone you know that wants to take on creating a garden.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n
