Community gardens help cities adapt to climate change. They reduce the urban heat island effect, absorb rainfall, and provide pollinator habitat. This year, we’ve also unknowingly created an urban bunny playground and grazing buffet! The conundrum of gardening is how to attract the ‘good’ wildlife and keep the pests at bay. Nonetheless, at Crowley Station, our raised beds are part of a larger vision for a more climate-smart Madison. Want to be part of the solution? Grow a garden. It’s one small act with a big environmental impact. We have a few beds available for fall planting, and you can join our waitlist for next season any time.
