Cortez Community Gardens The garden also grows produce that it donates to The Good Samaritan Food Pantry. We offer a variety of demonstrations, workshops, and activities for all ages.

Common Ground Cortez Community Gardens offer organic gardening space to residents as well as a variety of demonstrations, workshops, and activities for all ages. Produce will be shared by volunteers while excess produce will be donated to The Good Samaritan Food Pantry. We are welcoming community members to join us on Volunteer Days, to sign up for upcoming news and events, and to offer help, ideas, and ask questions as we set the foundation for this long-term community project. Stop by the garden anytime! Together, we are creating a showcase for using a public space to help feed a community. Join us in sustainable, community-led growing in Cortez!

Mike Nolan and The Grasshopper Collective in Mancos recently donated seed garlic to Cortez Community Gardens. Thanks for helping us help others enjoy quality produce grown right here in Montezuma County. The cloves will be planted in the Demonstration Beds at the Cortez Rec Center Community Garden where hopefully there will be a nice harvest next summer that will go to the Good Samaritan Food Pantry in Cortez.

Waste Management's Four Corners Area has once again donated $1000 to Cortez Community Gardens. This is their third year of support. Continuing donations like this allow us to keep plot fees very low so anyone can afford a plot. Plus, it gives us the means to keep those plots productive and in good repair. Thank you, Waste Management, for your continuing support of our community of urban gardeners. WM

Volunteers had a fun time in the Rec Garden this morning. Wednesday volunteers planted lettuce, carrots and spinach in beds; and made paper pots that were seeded with more lettuce. And, Don and Frances harvested their first tomatoes! They sure look good.

We harvested the first bucketful of onions at the Rec Center's Demonstration Garden today. Many are 3 to 4 inches in diameter. All will go to Good Sam's Food Pantry along with beets, carrots, lettuce, cilantro, and basil. Two weeks after the hail storm the garden is still in recovery mode, but doing better.
