EcoGarden Club
Beginning in the Fall of 2005, a small group of University of Connecticut students sowed the first seeds in our plot in the Mansfield Community Gardens.  Our philosophy is one of an open mind, where relationships with each other, The Land, and our community flourish. 

Our Philosophy
"We choose a sustainable approach to gardening, taking into consideration each branch of our community.  Together, we are creating an awareness of local foods, produced with the mindset of low enviormental impact.  As individuals, we are cultivating mindfulness through traditional practices.  As neighbors, we are creating lasting relationships for today and into tomorrow.  Our aim is to create a self-sufficient entity that coexists with nature.  By preserving soil integrity with compost, reduced tillage and crop rotation, we harbor nutrient rich crops.  Through water conservation and the use of non-synthetic soil amendments and pesticides, we hope to heal and protect the environment.  Lastly, we provide safe, healthy produce at fair market price, emphasizing a short distance from farm to table."
