Ken McKenna

Ken D. McKenna, a longtime gardener at Cousins Field Community Garden, and friend, died on May 24th, 2011.  He will be sorely missed by all. I remember Ken because he always wore a smile and had kind words to say to all that met him.

I learned Ken was an avid Lily gardener, and hope that we can soon create a long lasting tribute to Ken at CF Community Garden.

More details on that to come...

Thank you Town of Concord and Hawthorne Tree!

Recently, you may have probably noticed that some "black gold" as some call it (a.k.a. compost) appeared, then a few days later, some wood chips arrived to the left of the Community Garden recently. The compost was compliments of Rod Robison and Dick Fowler from the Town of Concord, and the wood chips of Chester Sadlow of Hawthorne Tree & Landscape.

Please accept our heartfelt thanks to the Town for delivering the rich compost for our gardeners to use to ammend their garden plots and to the local tree company, Hawthorne Tree & Landscape, for donating wood chips after a job, we are very grateful!

Please consider their generosity and think of them if you have any tree or landscape needs:
