The Tougaloo-Rainbow Sustainable Gardena
href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sustainablegarden/"will
produce high quality food for the Tougaloo educational community
and Rainbow Natural Grocery cooperative community. The garden will
demonstrate community, civic engagement and organic, sustainable
agriculture. We intend this garden to be a place of beauty, joy and
sharing with the outdoor hands-on classroom inspiring additional
sustainable community projects.
The garden got started on May 17, 2008.
DIRECTIONS:Enter Tougaloo College through the main
gate. Take the first left. Follow the road to the end of the
pavement and turn right. Just before the concrete dorm in the sky,
turn left into the woods and follow the road a short distance to a
place to park. You are at the garden.
TO GET INVOLVED:Call Michael Gentry, the garden
coordinator at 601-573-7529. He will be able to tell you when the
next gardening session is and if there is anything you should
bring.
HOW IT WORKS:Everyone who contributes to the
garden can share in the harvest. There is a log book of hours you
garden. That determines your share of the harvest. You can also
contribute your labor directly to the Community Engagement Program
of Tougaloo College or the produce department of Rainbow Natural
Grocery Cooperative.
Recycle at Rainbow Every Day: Please
bring clear glass, aluminum, clear plastic containers, paper bags,
and plastic bags to your co-op for collection. There are bins at
the back of the store. Just come in and tell us at the Customer
Service Desk and drive around to the back of the store. We will
gladly help you unload your recycles into the large bins placed
