Tranquility Garden at Hopewell Industries

Slow Food Coshocton is partnering with Clary Gardens and Hopewell Industries to convert part of the parking lot at Hopewell Industries into a Tranquility Garden.  The garden will be a 30’ by 30’ space that will include a water element, seating, and raised beds for both flowers and vegetables.  The objective of the garden is to provide a green space that offers tranquility and stress reduction; opportunities for learning; and the possibility of a small income from the sale of produce.    Because of the steps involved in plan approval and the time that it will take to build the space, the garden will probably not be ready for this growing season.  The role of Slow Food in this process will be to help bring people together to financially support the project and volunteers to help with the work.
If you have questions, ideas, or an interest in helping with this project, please email us at slowfoodcosh@gmail.com.
