Wesley Community Garden Opens for 10th Gardening Season

SARATOGA SPRINGS — The Wesley Community Garden in Saratoga Springs has opened for its tenth year.  The opening event, held on April 23, brought gardeners and friends together on a chilly Spring morning to move soil into 52 newly refurbished raised beds. 

“After all the disruptions of the past two years, it’s fantastic to have a full roster of gardeners again,” said coordinator Sandy Nealon. “We had a great turnout for opening day, got a lot of work done, and we’re looking forward to a fun and successful 10th anniversary year.” 

 The gardeners include residents of The Wesley Community and Saratoga Springs.  In addition to providing an opportunity for outdoor gardening to those who would otherwise not have it, the community garden is a social gathering space and has become a favorite spot for Wesley residents to sit, stroll and visit with family and friends.
