Garden Station Community Garden and Art Park

City of Dayton Proposes Commercial Development of Garden Station, Organizers Plead To Save Community Garden

June 26, 2013 By Dayton Most Metro 3 Comments

 

183242_10150090412812971_3773463_n

The following letter was published late tonight on Garden Station facebook page:

 

Warm Greetings, Supporters and Volunteers of Garden Station,

It is with a heavy heart that I must let all our supporters know of plans of the City of Dayton to potentially destroy Garden Station in its current form to make way for future “development”.

Last year the City purchased the whole block south of us, the old HD building, and I was leery of their intent. I invited City officials on tours of Garden Station and inquired about future plans that might affect us. I was assured that they were looking at the block south of us for development and not the property we lease. In January I was informed of the posted RFQ “as a courtesy” by the Assistant City Manager Shelley Dickstein and asked for meetings with her and Nan Whaley. Their position was that we are on development property and in order to attract the best developers they had to include our property as an option, but developers may choose not to use it. They were supposed to let me know who submitted proposals after the January 31st deadline but I have not heard back.

Recently I have heard through the grapevine that a developer has been selected and plans are made. I do not know what those plans are but have heard from many community leaders including priority board members that once the city announces their plans it is often too late to act.

I am asking you, our supporters and creators to ACT by calling, emailing and mailing our officials to ask for:

1. Garden Station to remain on the site we currently occupy as an amenity to potential housing/retail developments on the block south of us as well as existing residents.

2. Furthermore that our property be preserved as green space under a land trust organization, with occupancy by Garden Station as long as the property is maintained at an acceptable level.

3. Include your reasons for keeping Garden Station and tell what your personal connections are to Garden Station

A group of HS students from Ginghamsburg church planted 2 figs, 2 chestnuts, a persimmon, 1 apple, some yarrow, bee balm and fennel and 1 serviceberry.

I know there are over 1000 of you who personally have done physical labor to build Garden Station and over 100 community groups and businesses who have contributed to its creation! Garden Station uniquely represents the heart and soul of Dayton better than any other place in our city, through unique local artwork, music, community events and connecting our citizens to each other!  Like the Whos in the beloved Dr. Seuss book “Horton Hears a Who” we need to make our voices heard that WE ARE HERE! 

SOME BENEFITS OF OUR “DEVELOPMENT” AS GARDEN STATION TO THE COMMUNITY:

 

We are a unique attraction in downtown Dayton and have had visitors from all over the world stop to see us. We are on several travel sites including Roadside America and Trip Advisor. So many other “attractions” seem like cookie cutter copies that every city has. We have unique outsider art from all kinds of residents, examples of sustainable building techniques, demonstration gardens including a new food forest, a permaculture fixture that other cities brag about http://www.weather.com/home-garden/beacon-food-forest-20130620 , and we host all kinds of community groups from elementary students to UD and Sinclair student to the AARP.

 

We are providing education and demonstration of sustainable living practices in a time where more and more people are realizing the environmental frailty and nutrition-lacking aspects of our current food system. Our EarthFest was the largest Earth Day festival ever held in Dayton with over 30 free workshops for the public and over 30 local organizations participating. We are educating our neighbors to become more food secure and developing a more resilient local food system by training urban farmers in partnership with Omega CDC, Antioch College and Miami University. We are providing fresh, local organic food from our gardens to the public on Sundays when there is no other outlet for local food available in Montgomery County. We are providing fresh local organic food to seniors at Jaycee Towers and have the only rentable wheelchair accessible community garden plots in the area. Over 20 neighbors have community garden plots at Garden Station as well, including many urban dwellers without green space of their own.

 

We serve as an outdoor community center hosting all kinds of community organizations including meetings and non-profit fundraisers, art and music festivals, free music for First Friday featuring local bands, the Really Really Free Market, workshops, community potlucks, bonfires, rallies, weddings and more. Students from all over the Miami Valley from Elementary School to University have come for tours and volunteer days to learn gardening, art and green construction techniques.

 

We are an urban green space that serves all our area residents, created entirely by over 1000 community volunteers and donations, and over 100 community organizations and businesses.

  

Garden Station is created BY the community, FOR the community!

Please let our officials know you support keeping Garden Station as a community-created green space and the reasons you want to keep us!

Thanks for all your support! Garden Station exists because of support from our whole community!

Humbly,

Lisa Helm

EarthFest 2013 @ Garden Station Community Garden & Art Park

April 15, 2013 By Dayton Most Metro Leave a Comment

20130225071930-Earth-Day3This Saturday will mark the largest public Earth Day event in Dayton’s history with over 25 free workshops and 30 organizations participating.
EarthFest grew out of last year’s Sunday Market at Garden Station. The participating urban farmers collaborated to buy seeds together and grew extra plants for a plant sale. With 23 workshops under their belt from last season, Garden Station organizers had a base to expand on for EarthFest.

“The whole purpose of the event is to provide basic, easy to use, hands on information to help our residents “Go a Shade Greener” says Garden Station founder, Lisa Helm, “That will make us all more self sufficient and consequently our region more resilient and reduce our carbon footprint. ALSO it can help our residents connect with local organizations to help them on their ongoing quest to become more sustainable and connect our organizations to each other for future collaborations and sharing of resources.”

EarthFest will host over 25 free workshops on a variety of topics including multiple aspects of gardening, beekeeping, composting, backyard chickens, juicing, solar panels, natural building, home brewing, whole food cooking, fermented foods, recycling, crafts for kids and more!

In addition, more than 30 organizations are participating by teaching, providing information tables or sponsoring the event including The Montgomery County Commissioners, Square One Salon, Montgomery County Solid Waste District, 5th Street Brew Pub Co-op, Three Rivers and Stone’s Throw Food Co-ops, and more.

Cityfolk is participating by programming local music for the event including Armando Garcia, The Odyssey, The Good Time Accordion Band, The Corndrinkers, Seefari and the Stivers Jazz Combo. For the whole list of participants checkhttp://www.GoAShadeGreener.org

Also happening at EarthFest is the international event, The Great Cloth Diaper Change at 11:00 am, serving to promote more eco-friendly cloth diapers over disposables, as well as The Really Really Free Market.
The Greater Dayton Urban Farmers will have fresh local produce available as well as Fedco Certified Organic seeds and Non- GMO and Non-Monsanto owned varieties of vegetable bedding plants for sale.
New visitors to Garden Station will find there’s a lot more than just EarthFest to see, including 600′ of murals, sculptures, new mosaics, a greenhouse made of pop bottles, and a straw bale shed with a glass bottle wall and green roof.

Garden Station is on the NE corner of 4th Street and Wayne Avenue in downtown Dayton, a block from the Oregon District. EarthFest will run from 10am – 6pm, April 20. In case of inclement weather EarthFest will be at the Yellow Cab building across the street.

For more information about volunteering at Garden Station and other events, please visithttp://www.facebook.com/GardenStation or email DaytonGardenStation@gmail.com.
