Location:  58th Street up the hill from North Beach County Park.  This garden has been going for almost 30 years.

Goals:  To organically and cooperatively grow lots of veggies and berries for our North Beach families, sharing the work and the harvest equally.  All excess produce and seed starts are shared with the local Food Bank.

Structure:

Coordinators: Marilyn Friedrich, Honey Niemann
Primary work day:  Changes each year depending on when most members can be present. This facilitates the community goals of the group.  (Not during the covid years though.)
Fees:  a fee is set yearly for each participating family
Number of members:  Usually 7 or 8 families.

Sustainable Soil Practices:

We make our own compost
Minimal tilling
Floating row cover to control pests
Automatic timed watering
Cover crop after harvesting.
