Mermaid Moonfull in the Treehouse
It’s the first Full Moon Treehouse Concert of 2016 in El Jardin del Paraiso.
It’s the first Full Moon Treehouse Concert of 2016 in El Jardin del Paraiso.
Earlier, we’re going to the parade and might bring back some mythical beings from Coney Isle to cavort and slither and glide with you into the night.
The garden is at her most splendid in June, a green world alive with butterflies, roses, mulberries. We’ll try to make sure the gate is open on the Fourth Street side, but if needed just go to the Fifth Street gate and walk through the casita to the far southeast corner of the garden. Bring a blanket; we do have some chairs and a big picnic table (while they’re available). And bring someone to share the evening with you.
It’s all free; donations will be gratefully accepted.

As we approach the end of the growing season, let’s take some time to reflect on our efforts in supporting our neighborhoods and the community gardens within them. Are you interested in increasing programming and/or membership? By having membership procedures and agreements in place, it will be very easy to welcome new folks. If you are having trouble getting folks to visit or stop by, what better way to draw them in with an exciting event. We will go over successful event planning tips. We encourage groups to share their challenges and success so we can learn from each other. This workshop is in partnership with Just Food.
