We look forward to a great 2024 growing season.
In Indiana we can never predict when the weather will cooperate enough to get the ground prepared and the plots marked. We will post information here when that happens and tell of the availability for planting.
We hope that it will be in May and so, we have planned a “Planting Party” from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM on Saturday May 11th.
The Garden is located at 8658 W. Washington Street, Indianapolis, IN – see on map
THE 2024 SEASON IS SOLD OUT
Check back with us in 2025.
