Summary of Projects

In 2010 the Adams Farm Committee received a grant to expand the Community Garden Project from 32 to 48 plots for the 2010 garden season. Funds were requested to allow the purchase of seven new 100 foot hoses and heavy duty hose reels, communal tools including wheel barrows. In addition, the group seeks support for an extension of the perimeter fence and a small storage shed to house garden equipment.
