Today the garden had a visitor on horseback. Our guest was exploring Hanover and the Girl Brook Trail and happened to come up around the garden.

Hot Air Balloon in Garden

Posted on July 8, 2015December 4, 2016 by mmholthoff

A hot air balloon almost landed in the garden this evening. Some fast work by the pilot took it go ground just outside of the lower garden. People passing by helped the team anchor the basket, and deflate and pack up the balloon.

Plastic Plant Pot Collection

Posted on June 18, 2015 by mmholthoff

Saturday, June 20th
9:00AM – Noon
Longacre’s Nursery
220 Mechanic Street
Lebanon, NH

Sustainable Hanover, community volunteers and Longacre staff will be ready to accept your various used plastic plant pots, trays, flimsy multi-packs and plant labels on Saturday, June 20th and the third Saturday of July, August (and maybe September).

No need to wash the pots, just tap free of dirt, remove staples and they will be ready for us to stack.

Help us keep this usable plastic out of the waste stream and landfills.

If you would like to offer an hour or two to this volunteer task, we would welcome your help. Anyone needing pots may also join us during the morning, good company and free pots are your reward!
