History of the Sierra Vista Community Gardens, Inc., by Rebecca Hillebrand
The initial planning meeting for the community garden was held on July 18, 2011, attended by 18 people. We even got a write up in the paper. The second meeting with the purpose of gathering ideas from the community was held on August 1, 2011 at the Sierra Vista Food Co-op. The next step was to start forming committees to address issues such as how to organize, costs and resources. From these meetings a core group was formed that made this dream a reality. The Sierra Vista Community Gardens vision included wild and cultivated native plants as a means to create sustainable gardening in the high desert of Arizona. Read more here.
