Are you involved in a new community garden or looking to start one?

Join us to learn what it takes to get a community garden started, and how to keep it going.  PHS has been offering Garden Tenders as a semiannual class since 1995, with the intent to support community members in developing their greening and gathering skills.

For our Fall 2025 Session, we will cover community outreach & activation, affinity building, and sustainable garden management.

This course is open to all – no requirements. Please note that this is not a gardening class.

Meetings will be held virtually on Zoom, and in-person at the PHS Town Hall; Wednesday evenings, 6-8pm from September 10th -October 15th.
