Garden Highlights: Fourth Season Celebration & More

Fourth Season Celebration: Community Potluck & BBQ

Thank you everyone who came out on June 4 to celebrate the beginning of our fourth season and enjoy each other's company in the Garden and especially those who brought delicious appetizers, salads and sides. Without volunteer commitment and neighborhood support, we would not be able to sustain the Garden as a thriving community space.
Special thanks to Bonnie Soon-Osberger for organizing the event, the indispensable grilling duo Douglas Dunn and Mark Osberger, and Parisi Bakery for a generous donation of sandwiches.
