A small group from a New Orleans parish have been creating beautiful community gardens to help provide members of the community with locally grown, organic produce along with replenishing green space for everyone to enjoy.
As the beautiful community gardens flourished, so did the people and the communities. It is astonishing how such a small group of people can achieve such amazing results by having such a committed attitude and a clear goal. A comforting garden, a little hard work and some fresh organic food have brought many people together creating a positive community with a positive outlook.
This lovely example of people coming together to create sustainable and green local communities is something that more cities and places around the world should take note of.
