More To Love

With the help of our sponsors and supporters, Mid-City Community Garden successfully launched its second community garden, Wise Words Community Garden, which is located at 724 S. Hennessey Street. Wise Words Community Garden will combine two things that make New Orleans unique - food and art. It will be the first community garden to dedicate space to local artists, displaying their artwork. Words of wisdom will also be display along the garden's path.

Allison Pressimone and Allie George, students from St. Mary's College of Maryland, are only in town for a few days but Joseph Brock is making sure they get their hands dirty.

The volunteers, part of a dozen on a service trip to New Orleans through HandsOn, are tilling soil and setting up tomato supports on the raised beds at the Wise Words Community Garden. Other volunteers are busy planting herbs and spreading fertilizer.

Working Hard in the Garden

Thanks to Hands On New Orleans, the American Teleservices Association and Etech, Inc., our raised beds now have covers. View photos of the volunteers working hard to help beautify the Mid-City Community Garden. We would also like to thank the Olive Brance Cafe for providing last minute service to over 40 people.
