Rooted

The gardening season is underway at the Badger Rock Community Garden, with our garden kickoff last month and our annual plant giveaway this weekend! Thousands of plants grown with love by our Rooted farm teams went out into the community that will grow into thousands of pounds of fresh produce for families this season. As always, it was a beautiful scene of community, plants, and joy!

A big thank you to Klein's Floral & Greenhouses and Keene Garlic for your plant donations to the Badger Rock Community Garden Plant Give Away! These plants are already making their way to the gardens of many of our neighbors!

Today is Wisconsin School Garden Day! This day celebrates educators, students, families, community leaders, and all people who have made garden-based education a reality throughout the state. Governor Tony Evers has officially declared Thursday, May 21, 2026 to be the 8th annual Wisconsin School Garden Day. You can participate in Wisconsin School Garden Day by doing some type of garden-based education activity today or this week–anything that involves kids engaging with a garden or activities around planning, planting, observing, art, literature, and STEM can be a way to celebrate Wisconsin School Garden Day!
