We believe the garden has something for everyone…
The Council Tree Garden exists to initiate a cycle of blessing within Northern Colorado. Throughout the season, our grounds are actively pursuing growth and restoration of nature and humanity not only through what we grow, but through who we are. Our goal is that each person that enters finds a sense of place and belonging here and leaves encouraged and filled by our common connections to food and one another. Our produce finds its way into the heart of the community through visitors to our weekly produce stand, community organizations and the goodness of neighbors. Visit us and find out how you can be a part of cultivating love and blessing to those around you. Email chris@counciltreecovenant.com to volunteer or get more information.
This year’s theme is ‘Cultivating Place’.
More than ever before, I’ve sensed the isolation, social changes, and separation that our culture and community reside in day in and day out and many of us have felt the emotional toll that being in a constant state of adaptation has brought. For all these reasons and more, I think it is important for us to spend this season focused on ‘place’. What I mean by place is not just physical space, though it is. Place is so much more; it intersects with time, people, engages your senses to create memories, feelings and security. A sense of place can be created anywhere at any time, and even if we can’t identify it now, something draws us back. Something tells us that we are welcome, that we belong, something makes us feel secure, gives us hope, and encourages us onward. Our neighborhood and community need place, we need place. Place brings us together.
