Denver's City Council has a tremendous impact on the laws that govern our city. There are a number of sustainable living issues (including the urban agriculture section in the new zoning code, a new Food-Producing Animals ordinance, and lots more) that Council will vote on in the upcoming months. The newly vacant seat in District 1 has created an opportunity for all Denver residents to affect the direction of our City Council.

Annie and Patrick's Garden

We have four 4'x8' raised beds for vegetables. The sunniest part of the yard happens to be a concrete patio, and we built the raised beds on top of it. We are trying out a method called square foot gardening that helps optimize your garden space. We are also growing herbs and berries in containers. This is our first year planting a garden and we're excited to see how it turns out!
