Oh my goodness!!!! I know exactly where that garden is at. I grew up in that area. That garden hasn't been maintained. It's a mess now. LOL We should put that on our agenda as a plan of action to revive that garden. I believe it's suppose to be a botanical garden. It's next to a community recreation center, an auto mechanic shop and Oval Park. Before our next meeting, all those who can should go visit that garden.

I don't get up that way as often as I'd like, cuz of the expense of
traveling, -
but I'll definitely come if we have a work party to revive the garden!

I am also interested in reviving the community garden in EO.  Also, I'm definitely on board for the farm trip in early April.  I'm actually not far from that farm right now because I'm doing some work in Sussex County from now until Friday Evening.  That's all for now.  I'll be in touch.
