•
Established in 1999 as a Children's Garden (previously used
as an adult community garden)
• Is currently
managed/maintained by Civic Garden Center staff
• Contains numerous
raised vegetable and theme beds, cooperatively planted, maintained
and harvested by the Summer Sprouts gardeners. Bordering flower
gardens are also planted by youth gardeners.
• The lots that
the garden occupies are owned by the City of Cincinnati and Richard
Monaghan, who lease the land to us at no cost – just maintenance
of the garden.
• On May 31 of
2007, the garden will open for the season. The garden hours are
Thursday and Sunday from 3-5 pm. All children are welcome!
