New Thanksgiving Meadows Community Gardens

Our community is happy to announce that McArthur homes will be allocating space for our community to build a community gardens where residents can garden during the summer months (between May-October). A Thanksgiving Meadows Garden's committee has put together a set of community garden rules and application process. Applications will be accepted from condo/townhome residents on a first come, first served basis starting April 24th (at 7p.m.) through May 1st at which point the remaining garden plots will open to residents of the larger Thanksgiving Meadows community.

Gardens will be located in the open space between Prairie Grass and Golden Rod. Raised bed plots are available in a full and half-size plots. We're working with the McArthur engineers to professionally engineer and layout the garden. Currently there are 12- 4' x 12' plots although there may be a slight change in size to fit the lay of the land and layout of the garden per the engineering process.

Gardeners will have access to a water bib near their plot. The garden will have bark pathways and a two-slat vinyl fence to surround the space.

We're all very excited to see what kind of produce we can produce.
