This community food garden features artistic elements such as a colorful mural and a collection of birdhouses. This exuberant garden extends down the street, with containers filled with flowers and other plant life. It is cared for by many of the elders in the community, feeds the neighbors, and serves as an educational space for young people. There are a number of projects that need to be completed to maintain and beautify this garden space including the rebuilding of a retaining border, building accessible raised garden beds for seniors, and creating beautiful and functional mosaic walls.
