A brief description of the garden:
The Indiana State University Community garden has plots available starting in May of each year. The 2.5 acre lot houses many 10'x10', 15'x15', and 20'x20' plots. The garden restricts the use of artificial fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides and gardeners are encouraged to donate surplus food to local food shelters. A new teaching deck at the community garden has been constructed to provide teaching space for garden and sustainability classes.
