Community Garden


Fresh tomatoes, squash and peppers plus will soon be ready for the Old Town neighbors who planted and worked this community garden. They planted the garden on a vacant lot, and recent heavy rains are keeping it growing.

Community gardens not only reduce household food budgets and provide healthy vegetables, they beautify neighborhoods, encourage social interaction, recreation and exercise.

Thanks to Old town guest photographer Christine Weerts the picture.

What a lush community garden! I believe whole-heartedly in making it possible for everyone who wants to have a garden space.
