April 21st - Opening Day at the Community House Garden
Opening Day at the Community Garden was filled with many joy-filled activities to help us connect with Mother Earth. Our staff, Bridget and Jessie, volunteers Mariah and Marissa, and so many of our amazing kindness ambassadors showed up to join in the fun.
We drank dandelion tea, planted potatoes and Dahlia roots, and even a peach tree.
Please come and join us every Thursday 3-5:30PM and help our garden grow.

Everyone pitched in and we most definitely have some budding horticulturalists in our neighborhood!

That's the way to do it!

"Can I go on break now?"
"We've got it covered!"

Donations to the Community House Juice-a-Thon were collected this weekend from the Boley Farms, a local organic garden tended by horticulturist Jack Myrna. He donated more than 20 lbs of veggies to our cause of bringing healthy practices to our recovery house, and all those in our community wanting to experience a more healthy way of life. Recovery is hard, and often we can get comfort from food. Learning new healthy habits is a challenge, but part of living our best life. The Community House gives a huge thank you to Jack for his generous gift to our cause of a healthy body, healthy mind!

We are just getting started with our Community Garden, but thanks to our helpers at our Memorial Day event, we now have a total of five boxes with tomatoes, watermelon, lettuce and a few flowers.
Learning the joy of gardening, not to mention being able to provide healthy food for oneself and one's family, is part of our mission at the Community House--to support self-empowerment. Can we become empowered with the tools to be able to take care of ourselves and each other as we walk this journey of life? Here at the Community House, we believe in ourselves and our community!
If you have skills in gardening or other trades, come and join us!
