last year we stumbled upon this community garden in a nearby neighborhood. i wrote a little story on it last year but it deserves another shout out again this year. unlike many community gardens, which rent out plots for the community to plant, this one is planted and entirely maintained by the community. i decided to take a little walk through it this year and see what was going on. this year they have added a couple of plots for people to plant their own personal gardens, but it is mostly community space.
let me just say, this place is so amazing! the garden itself is so beautifully designed and immaculate, not a weed in sight! oh....what a few helping hands can do. check out what i saw...
