Shingle Creek

Tiny Fields Two!—Grow your own groceries! Deadline June 10

Interested in growing fresh produce at home for you and your family

to help lower your grocery bills?

Want to learn how to garden and get the most out of it?

SCNA is excited to work with partner Emily Organ and Tiny Fields to offer Tiny Fields Two! to help even more Shingle Creek residents during COVID grow

their own local homegrown produce.  

All fields do have to be on a boulevard or alley space. Once approved per sun/and site availability, residents will receive a free site tilling, field kit including seed and seedlings and instructions for a 5”x11” space approximately, and garden education. Tiny Fields Two! gardeners are responsible for planting, weeding, watering, mulching and harvesting. Everything you grow is yours to enjoy!  Application deadline is June 10.
