Neighborhood Veggie Beds at F&M Park

This is happening. Reserve your plot today!

TRAVERSE CITY — City residents who boast a green thumb but have no place to plant it can now rent a garden plot in four city parks, but commissioners warned would-be gardeners not to expect city assistance if someone wrongly picks their peppers.

This could actually happen! Write your City Commission to voice your support: [email protected]

Traverse City commissioners will consider a proposal from the city's Parks and Recreation Department Monday night to allow community gardens in certain city parks on a trial basis beginning this year.

Summer. Hello? Where you go, Summer? Well, that was fast. A blur really. I can't believe it's already the middle of October. Fall is in full force. Leaves are turning. Crisp mornings. Oddly, we hav...

Carter's Compost is proposing 2 small garden beds at our neighborhood F&M park near the already existing perennial plant beds. We hope that this small garden will serve our neighbors who want to grow some veggies but don't have enough space or light at home. Is TC ready for a couple tomato or kale or pea plants in its city parks? We think so! What about you?
