Local children, from left, Darius Johnson, 5, Alexia Spencer, 6 and Izabella Mogan, 7, pour compost atop cardboard for the new children’s garden on Knox Street in Lewiston. Using cardboard as a barrier for weeds is called lasagna gardening, according to Ari Rosenberg of Lots to Gardens. “We found that there was a greater need for family plots, so we’re expanding the community garden and relocating the children’s garden,” Rosenberg said. After the work on the garden was completed, the community joined together for a Harvest Celebration. Another Harvest Celebration will be happening today at Hillview Apartments on Rideout Avenue in Lewiston. There will be face painting, music and sack races plus other fun garden activities. Afterwards, there will be a meal cooked by the children at Hillview and Lots to Gardens staff. Games and activities begin at 4:30 p.m. and food will be served at 5:30 p.m. If you would like to attend the Harvest Celebration or have questions, contact Lots to Gardens at 513-3844.
