2011 Garden
Hi! I'm new here...just wondering if there are plots still available for 2011? If there are no plots left can we still volunteer to help out with clean up, etc.?

Organic?
Hi there,
I am wondering if the AACG is organic only? Are the plots that are on the waiting list only at the location that is behind the library on the way to Mechanic Street on the left? (Sorry, new resident here, do not know the area very well!). Any answers would be great. Happy to be a part of this "blossoming" online community.

Contaminated soil......
.......is there an answer yet? I don't believe all the garden plots were under the water in the recent flooding, but I thought the soil was going to be tested for heavy metals (from the Ten-Mile) and anything undesirable left over from the sewerage that was mixed in with the water. Does anyone know the outcome of the tests?
