MANKATO, Minn. (AP) The Living Earth Center on Good Counsel Hill has for 30 years welcomed area residents to use the two-acre community garden.
For 10 years, Blue Earth County’s one-acre Community Farm near Mount Kato developed into a gardening plot but was moved twice in the past couple of years as County Road 1 was reconstructed.
Recently Living Earth took over management of the Community Farm.
“At the community garden people are growing their own food and at the farm volunteers are growing food that’s donated to the community,” said Laura Peterson, Living Earth Center executive director.
