Let's build a community garden together in Lethbridge

Volunteers in Lethbridge are raising $600 for a community garden at the old Sycamore bus depot.

For three years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 10 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Sycamore bus depot, but no funding. We have received donated tools, and the remaining cost is $600. It will serve about 83 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in November and everyone is invited. We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos. Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered. Where the $600 goes: • Permits and inspections: $190 • Safety equipment and signage: $170 • Tools hire and delivery: $240 If you're reading this, thank you. - Natalia

    Sending good thoughts, Natalia. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too

    • Jordan B. Rodriguez

      Rooting for you, Natalia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
