Sustainable Indiana is a a non-profit organization chartered in the State of Indiana. Our purpose is to promote environmental awareness and sustainability in general, educate people about current issues of vital importance, such as Peak Oil and Global Climate Change, and provide an environment in which other individuals and groups who are working toward these goals can get together and share information and resources. All projects of the organization will be conducted transparently, so that others who are interested in implementing similar projects in their own community will be able to "clone" these projects locally.
Everything is pretty much finished with the new Crawfordsville Community Garden! Sustainable Indiana, Inc. wants to thank the Tipmont REMC EnviroWatts committee for their generous grant, which has helped make this a reality. We have also just submitted a grant request to the Montgomery County Community Foundation for money to buy a storage shed and tiller. Let's all keep our fingers crossed about this! Thank you to Victoria Fast and Patrick Taylor for helping me out with the grant request. And, of course, thank you to the members of the board (and their families) and all of the volunteers who came out to help us, as well!
One of our board members, Sue Lucas, has designed a show garden to occupy the first two plots as you enter the garden. It looks really nice! Good work, Sue! Please check out the garden next time you are on the South side of town.
