Mary Arlington, owner of High Plains Camping in Oakley, Kansas, has come up with a most unique way to differentiate her RV park from any other, that we have seen.  This year Mary has created and planted a garden, where the produce is produced for her guests. Imagine having fresh picked fruit or vegetables with your meal, thanks to Mary's creativity.  Here is a picture and quotes from Mary's blog, which may be read here.

Organic produce. Vegetables and fruits for your meal. Stay at High Plains Camping this summer or fall and pick from the garden.  The campground owner has a farmer friend who will plant this garden for the guests at the RV park. He loves farming and hopes the guests will appreciate his produce. This is the first year so we’ll learn as we go with this program. We’ll provide 2 pots where people can donate to show their appreciation to David The Farmer. There will be large variety of produce. As the plants are planted I’ll update this posting to give you the full list.

APRIL 25, 2009: The farmer was back today to till again, and to begin planting. The onions are in the ground!

We will look forward to sampling these goodies when we visit High Plains Camping a little later this year.  Like many of the more progressive RV Campground, Mary and High Plains Camping may be followed on Twitter at www.Twitter.com/highplainscamp or click on the Twitter logo.

NEAT IDEA. When I search for a campground, I look in Woodall and Trailer Life and on the Internet for reviews also. It would be GREAT to actually see a video of the CG and what it has to offer. I’ve often heard, the bigger the ad in Woodall, the better the ratings, on the other hand, a picture is worth a thousand something or others.
