1928. Home of the largest community garden, the population of Denton is diverse and
welcoming. Their DART rail system makes traveling between Denton, Dallas and Fort Worth
very convenient. The flat terrain of the city is located on top of the Barnett Shale, a geological

Lake, located 15 miles south of the city. The climate is humid subtropical, with hot, humid
summers that can average between 91 and 96 degrees Fahrenheit, and cool winters, with daily
