Community Garden Underway

Planting is well underway at a community garden in Fort Frances.

Becky Holden of the Northwestern Health Unit says all plots are spoken for, but they are still taking names.

"We are bringing a couple of raised beds out," says Holden, "and just in case anyone changes their mind. People have until the end of June to plant their beds before we take them off our list. If anyone is interested, we encourage them to contact me."

An official opening for the town's first-ever garden happen Thursday night.
