Should Bowie Have A Community Garden?

Bowie wants to hear from residents about a possible community garden in the city.

The city of Bowie posted a survey asking people whether they would like a community garden, and if so, how it should be funded.

You can take the survey here.

“A Community Garden is a location where residents, without adequate space or sunlight in their own yards, can plant fruit, vegetables and flowers in a communal area,” a post on the city’s website says.

“Water, fencing and garden materials are usually available on site. Fees and participant volunteer hours are usually required.“

The deadline to complete the survey is December 7.

“City officials want to hear from as many residents as possible regarding their thoughts, pro or con, as to whether the City should embark on this project,” the post says.

“To better reach those interested, they ask that respondents provide name and contact information on the survey form.”
