Vertical gardening group seeks donations, volunteers and partnerships for community food project
Summary
A volunteer-led vertical gardening project described a 3-acre plot at 1500 Hornland, plans to scale production and distribute produce via local partners (Burrito Brigade), and requested wood-chip suppliers, tools, legal help and volunteers.
A volunteer group presented a community vertical-gardening project that uses deep-mulch techniques and is moving from a pilot to a larger distribution plot. The presenters said they are in their second growing season, plan a planting day on Saturday the 17th, and are seeking arborist wood chips, in-kind donations (t-posts, wiring, tools), volunteers and legal support to draft liability agreements for public distribution.
The group identified their larger plot as located at "1500 Hornland" and described it as roughly "a 3 acre property." They said they currently partner informally with Burrito Brigade and other distributors for small-scale donations and hope to formalize distribution partnerships as production scales. Interested neighbors were invited to provide contact emails so organizers can circulate volunteer days and updates.
