Hello to the City Commission and the Sustainability Board, I am a bozeman resident who recently spent some time
out at the Story Mill Community Garden and I wanted to express my appreciation and excitment to have a
communal space. Story Mill has great potential for providing a community food source which is community
operated and is a viable sustainable food source as well. I've gotten to know the garden through some friends and
additionally it has been a very valuable resource to learn how to garden various plants. I am not the best with
recognizing plants or understanding how each plant in the ecosystem works and now I'm learning. I think this can
and should be an important space for the wider Bozeman Community to come together, learn with each other, and
collectively maintain a food source together. It sounds like the funding for the garden is currently very limited and
ask you to give serious thought about putting more funding and resources into this space. Bozeman needs it!
If you would like to submit additional documents (.pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .gif, .jpg, .png, .rtf, .txt) along with
your comment, you may alternately address comments@bozeman.net directly to ensure receipt of all
information.
Thank you,
City Of Bozeman
