The City Hall Victory Garden was an incredible experience….and experiment. With the support of Mayor James Sottile, our garden committee was granted the opportunity to place an organic garden in a most visible spot in Kingston. Taking a chance like that might seem like a no brainer. But it was very progressive of City Hall and has helped us to begin a real garden movement in Kingston.
We lost a true champion in our work, too, with the passing of Kathy Janeczek. I enjoyed working with her and will absolutely miss her cool head, kindness and support as we continue on.
…and although our little garden created by the Kingston High School students along with many volunteers didn’t bear much fruit due to rain and high winds, it was a great start. We look forward to many, many years to come.
Have a great fall season.

Rebecca, such a quiet garden now for one that grew so many other gardens this year.
Have a nice winter, gardens, and be proud of yourselves!
You, too, Rebecca!
