HOME > DEPARTMENTS > TRIBAL EPA HOME > COMMUNITY GARDEN
Volunteers and staff worked closely together throughout Spring of 2004 to build a community garden
for the Hopland Pomo Tribe. Each year, volunteers put in long, hard hours, designing, clearing,
disking, digging, planting, weeding, and contributing in so many ways to make the site a real
community project. Soil is generally of very poor quality at Hopland, so we enrich the soil with
compost. We have also installed an irrigation system on-site.

| Tomatoes, squash, pumpkins, corn and other vegetables are grown in the garden, and the community always looks forward to harvest-time! |
| Every Earth Day, there is a gathering at the community garden to bless the earth and to celebrate groundbreaking. Volunteers have constructed picnic tables, BBQ grills have been donated, and the site is now a true gathering place for Tribal members. |
