Divide Kitchen Garden — The Kitchen Garden group is part of the Divide Garden Club. We are interested in growing and preserving food. Right now we are starting our fall/winter gardens. With our climate on the Divide those of us below the heavy snow line can harvest from the garden 12 months of the year if we do it right and of course if we’re lucky with the weather. The people higher up can also harvest year around but usually have to do more protection. With the economic situation we are finding more people interested in growing their own food.
