Kane County Health Department Garden Plots
Garden
What’s the best way to add fruits and vegetables to your family’s diet?  Try growing some!!

Plan your garden with your family.  Children are more likely try produce they helped grow.  And having a garden will save you money on your grocery bill.  And, you’ll enjoy the fresh air activity.

Backyard gardens are great, but if you have limited space or sunlight, consider a community garden plot.   

The garden plots are at
1330 N Highland Avenue in Aurora.

Watch for information for 2013!

For more information on starting a garden, check out the University of Illinois Extension guide:
