East Hill Edible Gardening is celebrating our 5th year anniversary!

Tom Garner and Renée Perry of East Hill Edible Gardening at Earth Day 2014

When we began five years ago we had no idea how many people in the community were interested in growing their own fresh vegetables! With your help we’ve accomplished so much:

  • Taught over 600 students our basic class “Easy Weed-Free No-Till Organic Gardening”
  • Taught even more students through our specialty classes: cool weather, warm weather and hot weather vegetable gardening, chicken and bee keeping, and permaculture
  • Provided local gardeners with thousands of vegetable plants from our booth at the Palafox Market
  • Visited numerous backyards for home consultations and garden installations
  • Served as volunteer consultants at local community gardens
  • Reinvigorated and continue to manage a local elementary school garden
  • Met and spoke with 1000’s of gardeners and potential gardeners at numerous local festivals, events and workshops
  • Served as officers and board members of the Pensacola Organic Gardener’s Club
  • Introduced to the broader gardening community in our area dozens of interesting and unusual edible plants from around the world
  • Provided numerous gardening presentations to local clubs and organizations

Thank you everyone for your wonderful support! We could not have imagined the success that we’ve experienced over the last five years, and we could not have done it without you.

We look forward to what the future holds, and we have some interesting plans ahead, so we invite you to continue to grow with us!
