COMMUNITY GARDEN AT BETH SHALOM

Did you know that you can rent a plot in our CBS Biblical Garden?
These beautiful planter boxes, complete with soil,
are waiting for your green thumb.

Discover the health benefits of gardening.  Gardening is a great way to de-stress. Gardening allows us to relax our minds as well as our bodies. It's more effective than reading or working out, and some studies show that gardening can actually lower cortisol, the hormone responsible for stress.

Plots are only $75 per year and are on a first-come, first-served basis.

Contact the CBS office for more details or to reserve your plot.
