It was early July in the hot summer of 2010 when dozens of volunteers completed the first phase of the Garden. Today, tons of organic vegetables grow here in neat rows of boxes, graced by gorgeous murals and plantings of flowers. The garden has won two Beautification Awards from Huntington Town.

The garden has also created a dozen part-time jobs; provided an opportunity for recreation, exercise, and social contact; helped the community fight diet-related diseases like diabetes; reduced family food costs; and been a teaching laboratory for hundreds of local children.

Come for a visit! The garden is open to the public every day, from sunrise to sunset. (Please note: the vegetables belong to the gardener assigned to each box. No picking, please!)
