Its name is cute, but its aim is educationally serious. It’s
the Lettuce Grow Together Garden Club, which began on
March 20 and meets every Wednesday evening through at least
the end of June at the Petersen Barn Community Center. The goal
of the club, says club leader Jasun Wellman (known as Plaedo), is
to “demystify the process” of organic gardening, food preparation
and slow cooking. “Learning to grow food can take years,” Plaedo
says. “It can be intimidating.” In addition to gardening and
preparation instruction, Lettuce Grow Together will have guest
speakers, book readings and various seasonal gardening activities,
all to promote sustainability. The weekly class welcomes all from
Eugene, yet Plaedo wants to place special emphasis on growing the
class with Bethel community residents. “There are pockets of this
community that don’t have this,” he notes. “There’s an interest in
cultivating this culture.”
Lettuce Grow Together Garden Club meets 6 to 8 pm every
Wednesday at Petersen Barn Community Center, 870 Berntzen
