Finlandia University and the City of Hancock are collaborating to create Hancock's first community garden—part of the "strategic and creative long-term exchange of resources" between the University and community. Finlandia will host the garden on campus, the City will provide soil and water, and the Ryan Street Community Garden members and volunteers will govern and maintain the site. The plan is to have the first phase of the garden operational for the 2011 growing season.
