Dana Whitfield is organizing this fundraiser.

CommunityDuluth, MNCreated October 19, 2026

Last month's windstorm flattened nearly 200 feet of fence around the Lakeside Community Garden. Without it, deer cleaned out half the beds in a single week.

The garden feeds about 40 families and supplies the Friday free-produce table at the library. We've priced cedar posts, wire mesh and a new gate, and volunteers will do all the labor over two weekends in spring.

Every dollar goes to materials. We'll post receipts and photos here as the new fence goes up.

We're past halfway! Thank you all. We ordered the cedar posts this week so they arrive before the ground freezes.
