I am starting a garden club at our senior community and am seeking assistance on setting up structure and bylaws and whatever else we need to get started right. Thanks for your help.

Hi Ken

This is very nice of you

I hope you saw the article that I put in your last post

As far as bylaws go you need to ask the facility what their bylaws are

The best bet is to do a raised garden because most seniors cannot bend over and work from the ground

Perhaps someone in the maintenance department can help you make them

You may want to have an herb garden here are some ideas about that

This article may help you also it does give alternatives to having raised beds
