10 to 11:30 a.m. at the 5th Street Community Garden in Port Angeles

Do you find it difficult to learn about vegetable gardening from books and lectures? Are you tired of sitting at your computer searching for gardening information when you want to be in the garden? Come learn at the 5th Street Community Garden in Port Angeles. Yes! We’re back to doing these walks live and in person!

The garden walk will focus on what is happening (or should be happening) in the vegetable garden each month and will highlight

  • What vegetables grow well in our climate,
  • What needs to be done in the vegetable garden, and
  • What control measures exists for common pests and diseases.

The next, and final, 2021 Second Saturday Walk at 5th St. Garden is scheduled for September 11.

The Fifth Street Community Garden is located at 328 E. Fifth Street in Port Angeles just off Peabody, right across from City Hall. The garden includes over 50 individual 9×12-foot plots that are rented by community members. You may visit during daylight hours. All visitors are asked not to sample any fruit and vegetables without permission form the renters. COVID-19 protocols, including social distancing and wearing masks, are encouraged while visiting the garden. Two picnic tables are available, so bring a picnic and enjoy the everchanging landscape. The garden has no bathroom facilities or garbage pickup. Please take your trash with you. The garden is not wheel-chair accessible.
