Pergola
The pergola is used for garden activities and programs.
Story-Telling Area
This area is designed to provide seating for groups visiting the garden and for storytelling.
Enabling Tools Display
Enabling tools are tools that make gardening easier for people with special needs. Examples are pruning shears with a ratchet joint that require less strength to operate, light-weight garden tools, cut and hold shears, tools with adjustable handle lengths, devices to aid planting seeds and tools with contrasting colors.
Red Barn Storage
The barn is divided into two sections. The main section is for storage of supplies and equipment and a work bench for repairs. The side annex is for garden tools.
Produce Handling Facility
This sheltered area is for cleaning, trimming, weighing and packing produce that is to be sent to the serveries. It also serves as a work area for seeding transplants and other garden activities.
Compost Facility
The garden produces a lot of refuse that is composted. In addition, pre-meal produce trimmings are brought to the garden from the serveries and mixed with tree leaves to make compost. This is done in the compost facility which consists of a series of bins which are assembled as needed to make small batches of compost. The reason for the small batches of compost is so that each can heat to 140 to 160 degrees and pasteurize the compost as it is being made.
