Truckee-Donner Recreation & Parks District has given Slow Food Lake Tahoe permission to build a community garden next to its Food Bank Garden in Truckee River Regional Park. This space will be dedicated to the local community. Slow Food Lake Tahoe will build and rent garden bed plots to aspiring gardeners in which to grow their own food at high altitude.
The nonprofit organization will be organizing a volunteer committee to help navigate raising funds and building out the space this fall through next spring 2021. Organizers are also looking for anyone with marketing and public relations expertise to help promote the project. Those interested should email pfgeary@gmail.com. | slowfoodlaketahoe.org
