GPHC Command Central: Garden Walk, Garden Harvest
Free Farm Stand Resumes June 6; Come Help Yourself
By Lana Cordes
Executive Director, GPHC, Inc.
We are so excited for the Park Hill Garden Walk on Sunday, June 12. The event will feature eight beautiful gardens, along with local artists. All proceeds support your favorite registered neighborhood organization, Greater Park Hill Community, Inc. Tickets are on sale now online and in retail outlets. Check out pages 1, 4 and 5 for the story on this year’s gardens and gardeners, and visit parkhillgardenwalk.org for details.
Warm weather brings back our Free Farm Stand resuming Monday, June 6 and every Monday thereafter through October. Here at GPHC World Headquarters, 2823 Fairfax St., we’ll be distributing free produce from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., so come on over and help yourself. Thanks to Denver Food Rescue and other partners, we will receive weekly produce deliveries from the City Park Farmers Market and local gardens.
If you are a gardener with abundance, please consider dropping off your extra harvest to us and we’ll make sure it’s put to good use. Our goal is to promote sharing among neighbors and food waste reduction.
