Oxford School Garden Plans to be Discussed Tuesday

After years of discussion it’s possible some answers may come into focus Tuesday night concerning a proposed garden project at Great Oak Middle School, reports Jordan Otero, of the Waterbury Republican-American.

Members of the Oxford Agricultural Advisory Committee will be present at Tuesday’s school board meeting to answer questions from school officials.

Otero reports current plans call for 40 4-foot-by-8-foot raised wooden garden beds atop the asphalt.

The town has funded $25,000 for the garden, and officials may seek a $48,500 state grant.
