Winter Musings
As gardeners, we tend to overlook the importance of the winter months. The weeks of cold are simply a long break between when the last crops of the fall are harvested and the first of the spring can finally be planted. During this time, many of us step back from our outdoor plots and beds.…
CGN’s first year: a look back and a commitment to the future.
Seven months. It’s been seven months since the Cooperative Gardens of Narberth started- seven months of hard work, community, and plenty of weekly harvest sessions. In those seven months, we’ve established two gardens, one with the sole purpose of growing for donation, endured our fair share of leaky hoses, and built a network of gardeners,…
Fall Gardening Event Recap
On Sunday, August 23 we were thrilled to host our first community event in Narberth Park! In attendance were gardeners of all different skill levels, but who were all willing and eager to learn new information and share their own experiences. We loved talking with all of them, and had a great discussion about fall…

Giving Garden Update!
Such an exciting weekend! The Giving Garden beds have been built and installed on site behind the library. There are eight 4×4 foot beds, nice and deep at 12 inches to provide a cozy veggie home. The cardboard covering the ground between the beds will soon be covered with wood chips to keep mud down…
Exciting Updates
Here at CGN, we are incredibly excited to announce that the Narberth Borough has approved our request to build gardens on public space! As of now, the Giving Garden will be undergoing construction shortly, and we anticipate that the Community Garden will be open for planting in June. None of this would be possible without…
