We invite the public to attend an in-person meeting or visit one, or all three, of our community gardens. Our Farmer’s Market at Heritage Park runs from June through mid-September with a number of local vendors and community groups. Please consider joining us. We are eager to connect with our community members and organizations in our mission to promote sustainable living in our town.
