Description

The City will either partner with a local non-profit or take the lead on this initiative to create a small community orchard (10-20 trees). The orchard will serve an educational purpose of teaching residents how to grow apples and other fruits and will encourage residents to grow their own food. The orchard will enhance community involvement with volunteers to help maintain the trees and lead educational programs. The community orchard will reduce milage food travels from orchard to fork.
