We wanted to take a moment to thank Dunes-Calumet Audubon Society, the Hammond Boys & Girls Club, and Forest Heights Neighborhood friends and family for making our planting day such a success. We look forward to seeing the garden thrive! We would also like to thank the members of the Being Human Club and neighbors for their assistance in cleaning up the front landscaping. It's a beautiful space all around ❣️
Our mission is to foster community connections and serve others through growing fresh produce in our community garden.
