Community Organic Garden

arboretum — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 19:02:37 +0000

The UA organic community garden started in the Spring of 2009 with a group of students interested in knowing more about how food grows and hoping to foster a stronger bond between students, faculty and the greater Tuscaloosa area.

It began as a 20×20 foot plot graciously given to us by the UA arboretum and has since doubled in size. In its creation, we hoped that it would serve many functions from educating students of all ages, to creating an outlet to give back to the community. We grow just about anything in season and would love your input and participation.
