Thanks for visiting our new SCCG blog. Here we will post announcements, news and pictures of the goings on in our beloved garden.
The Garden is located on the West bank of Salmon Creek, 1/8 mile North of Hwy 58 in Oakridge. To find it using roads: go North on Hills St from 58, bend right on Hills as it turns East at Salmon Creek Park. Turn right into the parking area and head for the creek. Turn right again and walk downstream 1/8 mi until you see a round sign at the entrance!
Currently we are meeting every Saturday morning around 10:00 in the Garden. Be sure to bring water to drink and gloves.
This week we are encouraging private plot caretakers to turn in the cover crop and plant summer crops. The large shared area will be planted with corn and squash. A new path through the center maple grove was build last week and more natives will be planted along the edges.

Garden History

- The Salmon Creek Community Garden was founded in 2006 by a small group of committed Oakridge area citizens. It is a 2 acre parcel on beautiful Salmon Creek. The garden is divided into permanent infrastructure and personal plots. So far the garden contains pear trees, plums, cherries, an almond tree, apples, asian pears, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, a grape vine, artichokes, rhubarb and various native shrubs and wildflowers.
