A meeting to plan the construction of community gardens along the bike path in Malden will be held on Monday, April 1, at Hugh O’Neill’s Pub, 45 Pleasant St., in Malden Square.
When completed the gardens will provide individual plots of land for Malden residents to grow food and flowers, as well as public areas to grow plants and beautify the Northern Strand Trail. The gardens will be located on the trail between Bryant and Faulkner streets in Malden’s Ward 5.
The April 1st meeting will be held between 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. This year’s Earth Day clean up plans will also be discussed. Anyone interested in helping out with that or with planning, building, and maintaining the community gardens is encouraged to attend. The construction of the gardens is made possible through a partnership with the City of Malden, Bike to the Sea, and Groundwork Somerville.
