St Peter and St Mary Communtiy Garden
The garden at St. Peter and St.
Mary’s church is located in the beautiful Baker historic
district. Produce from the garden is used to provide meals to
the homeless.
Why We Love Our Garden:
Community Events:
The garden has rich siol that allows basil,
tomatoes, and squash to flourish. There is an easy watering
system, weeds are minimal, and everyone parking their cars in
the
church lot have an opportunity to see the
progress each week.
 | ||
We have had many salads, vegetable, and
squash dishes to serve our homeless population at our Tuesday
night dinners. The Joy of these people eating this fresh
produce is awesome.
Individuals such as Daryl come to the
church daily where he tends to his own garden plot on the
corner and helps with watering other plots. This garden gives
the neighborhood life and also gives him a worthwhile purpose.
An herb project was also started this year successfully
adding flavor to our soups and stews and to dry for use
over the winter.
