February's Guest Speaker Jude Carson-Community Garden Project

Jude Carson is a retired writer and keen gardener.
 While she was writing, gardening was one of her main subjects. It was also during that time that she and other interested people conceived the idea of the Greater Saint John Community Garden. She'll tell us about the beginning days and the status of the Garden today, still thriving in its 13th year, and bring photos to show its progress.

What is the Community Garden Project The Greater Saint John Area Community Garden (G.S.J.C.G.) is a volunteer project working with the Leisure Services Department of the City of Saint John. It was established to provide an opportunity for citizens to have a place to garden. The Community Garden is located on the former site of the Rockwood Elementary School.
