The community garden initiative, which began last year, continues to thrive as more families join in. Located in the heart of the Latino neighborhood, the garden not only provides fresh produce but also fosters community connections.
Participants learn about sustainable gardening practices while growing vegetables and herbs that are culturally significant. Workshops on gardening techniques and healthy cooking are offered regularly.
"Gardening has brought us together as a community," said participant Rosa Lopez.
The initiative has also created a space for cultural exchange, where families share recipes and gardening tips.
