DAVIDSON—A plot of land in Arnold Park will be more productive.

Davidson will soon have its first community garden.

At its April 17 meeting, Davidson town council approved a request from Davidson Communities in Bloom (CiB) committee for a community garden spot in Arnold Park.

The garden will be located at the far edge of the park adjacent to Second Street.

Stuart Dougan, chairman of the CiB committee, said this will be a new project for the group.
