Ovid Community GardenFor pictures of Ovid Community Garden, see slide show below.
This large community garden is within walking distance from the Village of Ovid, near the water tower off County Rd 139. It has an "Outdoor Classroom" attended by South Seneca students, a large perennial flower garden, lovely murals, access to water, a secure fence, and many raised beds. A resident will reserve a bed, tend it on their own schedule, and then harvest the produce they grow in it. These popular beds are reserved in the late Summer or Fall, well ahead of the following Spring. If you're interested in reserving one, please contact <stepscommunity@s2aynetwork.org>. Some of the Ovid Community Garden's ground rules include:
Gardening is Healthy & Fun Through community gardening, you can stay physically active, put hands in the earth, connect with nature, build community ties, and increase the production of nutritious, fresh produce for your family and friends. Time spent outdoors improves mental health too. Get some sunlight and fresh air! Beyond all the benefits of gardening, we know many of you truly rely on food that you grow. With the increase in food prices, gardening is becoming an essential skill. If you'd like to rent one of our raised garden beds, please email STEPS at <stepscommunity@s2aynetwork.org>. Don't delay because these raised beds are popular, and are usually reserved in the Fall for the following Spring. With gratitude for all you do to make the community a better place. Happy Gardening! |
