GOVERNMENT ENHANCING OUR community SILO PARK GARDEN COMMUNITY INPUT MEETING TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14 The Parks, Trails and Recreation Department is inviting the community to bring ideas and give input on the future look and purpose of the Silo Park gardens. Please join us on Tuesday, September 14 from 5:30-6:30 p.m. at the Silo Park barn, 9300 South Orchard Road. The property that was to become Silo Park was acquired by the Village in 1994. An involved citizen process guided the design of the park. One of the features was a demonstration garden that originally showcased primarily native grasses along with some traditional crops such as wheat, barley, corn, and pumpkins. The content of the garden has evolved through the years, and approximately 10 years ago, the Arapahoe County CSU Extension Colorado Master Gardener volunteers took over the planning, planting, and maintenance of the gardens. Under their care, the gardens have become largely dedicated to produce production. The vegetables harvested yearly are donated to a local food pantry in Greenwood Village. While a worthy cause, it has changed the aesthetics of the gardens and the Master Gardeners volunteers at Silo Park have requested a perimeter fence. The gardens were originally ground level and were raised over time to protect them from pedestrian traffic. The beds are now deteriorating due to age and in need of updating to improve functionality and aesthetics. If you are unable to attend the community input meeting, you can provide your ideas online at greenwoodvillagevoices.com. For more information or questions, please contact Suzanne Moore, Director of Parks, Trails, and Recreation, at 303-708-6142 or smoore@greenwoodvillage.com.
