VISITOR COMMENTS ​

Comments are always welcome at the Cedar Key Community Garden. 
We actively collect comments in our comment book located in the
bird house / mail box  near the Garden's Li
ving Room close to Second Street. 
VISITOR COMMENT BOOK
Shortly after the Cedar Key Community Garden was up and operating in early 2016, visitors began to arrive.  As they wandered about, often speaking to the gardeners, they expressed how very much enjoyed the garden, how they would like to emulate the effort in their own towns, their curiosity about how the effort commenced, questions about what could be grown when., and more.
​ 
Gardeners thought a comment book conveniently located in the Garden would be a great fine place to capture visitors’ comments.  They did just that.  They built a small house and installed it near the Living Room, the seating area to the left as one enters the garden.  Then they added a student composition booklet within.  Visitors did the rest.  Our first and second  books are  full and we have begun our third book.

We live in Gainesville FL but originally from Cameroon. Visiting this garden today reminds us of Africa because everybody back at home has a garden behind their home. And every school has a garden as well. Great job to this community initiative that helps pull people together.

Somehow it never caught my eye! What a wonderful garden to see all the local support. What great plots going in December. Now I will continue to visit. Not to mention we left with some fresh green onions. May these lush gardens continue. (:

This is a wonderful place, we have been coming here for years + just discovered – although it was just developed this year. The people in this little town are so creative + it always feels like "family" when we come to Cedar Key.  This little garden makes it even more special!
