Ditto Lamishra. Cary Pocket Garden is up and running! If you're in NW Wake, the Morrisville Community Garden is in process and should be planting by mid-April. We'll be in a temporary location this year but will move to permanent quarters next spring. www.morrisvillegarden.org

Thanks to this thread, I just signed up at the Covenant Community Garden in Fuquay. I went this morning to see it and got to meet Joy who runs the garden. It is run by the Fuquay United Methodist Church, but you do not have to be a member of the church to join the garden. The fee was $10 a year for a family and all that is required is that you work 4 hours a month in the garden to partake of the harvest. Whatever is left over goes to the Fuquay Food Pantry.
It's a beautiful garden and quite sizable. There are compost bins and piles. There is a beehive, a bean teepee and a spring fed pond that they use as a water source. They had cabbage, onions, garlic, diakon radishes, leaks, lettuces, beans... I am so excited to work in this garden!
