The South County Community Garden continues the farming tradition at River Farm (1972 photo above), and donates the majority of the food to various community organizations - usually 200+ bushels.
Saturday March 15 start-up meeting & planting
It started off chilly but turned into a beautifully warm day. We had our 2014 start-up meeting and then planted 5 rows potatoes (Red Pontiac, Yukon Gold & White), peas, plus a few more flats of greens for the greenhouse.
Thanks to Anne Arundel County Parks & Rec for the compost
