Calling all backyard farmers!

New community garden now under construction

Ever dreamed of planting and growing your own vegetables? How about an herb garden with basil or oregano that you can pick and use for dinner that same night? Or maybe you prefer the beauty and fragrance of flowers. Imagine a fresh bouquet picked right from your own garden and on display in your living room.

Well, we have great news to announce for Tracy Hills residents! The construction of our community garden has started and is to be located next to the dog park.

At just over 2,000 square feet, the garden will include approximately 95 raised beds with irrigation. Designed by Forma and built by Green Valley Landscaping, the areas surrounding the raised beds will be partially maintained by the HOA, while Tracy Hills homeowners will be responsible for maintaining their own beds (yes, you’ll need to pull your own weeds and throw away any trash)! There will be a very small fee attached for the HOA’s management of the garden area.

Want to plant a variety of things every season? Let your imagination grow! Plant your favorite carrots, lettuces, herbs or flowers, then pluck them out when they’re ready to eat or be harvested.

Be sure to be on the lookout for a grand opening event, too, once construction is complete.
