A community garden is taking root behind the police station, all because 10-year-old Liam Reed asked town officials if there was one and when told no, stated there should be one. There are four raised beds, each with two sections. “We made them so people of all abilities can work in them,” Austin stated. “There will be 11 pots for herbs. We will have chives, lavender, basil, thyme, dill, sage.” Someone might want to make pickles, use herbs for cooking or other things.
