Seed is planted...

The Parker Road Garden Co-op is the brain child of Luther Light, owner of a stretch of land along the Rio Ruidoso. With enough land to support a gaggle of people, but not enough hands to work it, Luther gathered a bunch of hungry and eager friends to begin a community garden. After an initial organizational meeting, the Parker Road Garden gate was officially opened to anyone who wanted to dig, sift, sort, mulch, weed, plant, pick or eat. Volunteers work on a whatever-needs-to-be-done-basis and log their hours in an online spreadsheet. Whatever results will be shared come harvest time.
