A Garden Of Possibilities...

In May of this year, SUCAP Youth Services, Peace Jam, Healthy Lifestyle La Plata, The Ignacio Teen Center, and several community members embarked on a small and very meaningful journey. The goal of the journey, to ensure that the youth of our community knew how to get their thumbs green!!!




From the building of the raised beds to the planting of the first seeds, watering daily and ensuring that the gardens survived, the youth of our small community have helped to keep this journey going.




Now, the end of the summer is drawing near and their efforts have literally come to fruition. The garden has exploded into a thriving "mess" of vegetation!







To all who contributed in any way, thank you for all your hard work to make the first phase of our community gardens project a major success!!
