Our Garden Continues to Grow

Basehor PRIDE continues to work on the Basehor Community Garden in the Basehor City Park.  Here are a few of our most recent projects:

We've added a hose and lock to the waterspout.  All garden participants now have keys to the waterspout and most have begun planting.

Not only will the Community Garden be functional, but Basehor PRIDE is also pleased to announce that it will be beautiful as well!  The High School has begun crafting a pergola to go at the garden entrance, and the dimensions have been plotted out at the garden. 

If you haven't been by lately, stop by to see the progress at the park.

Yard of the Month and Other Exciting News

Basehor PRIDE is happy to announce that we have been approved for $4,800 in grant funding through Kansas Community Gardens!  Check out their website here: http://www.kansascommunitygardens.org/.  We cannot wait to put this money to good use by adding a number of improvements to our garden as we continue to build and grow.  This grant is in addition to over $1,000 we recieved from Kansas PRIDE, Inc. through their Partnters in Pride grant program.

Basehor PRIDE is also gearing up to start our Yard of the Month program back up this summer.  Starting in May, Basehor PRIDE will begin selecting 4 yards in Basehor every month to be featured in the Basehor Sentinel as the Basehor Yard of the Month.  Check out some of our previous winners.

Watch for this year's Yard of the Month picks in the Basehor Sentinel!
