Raised beds are a great way to use limited space, and they make it easy for children to take part!

Of course, there are lots of ways in addition to these that you can contribute. If you just love to work outside and want to be a part of any of these activities let us know and we'll get you involved.

We also need help with areas like nutrition, public relations, and community relations; so you don't have to get down 'n dirty to help and have fun. Just call or e-mail today!       Idaho Falls Community Garden Association, (208) 524-0383  e-mail: growifcga@gmail.com
