Haven Acres Community Garden Overhaul Completion
2019-04-27 09:30 - 11:30
We are excited to finally finish the overhaul of the Haven Acres Community Garden just in time for spring planting!
Come one, come all Saturday, April 27 from 9:30am until 11:30am at the Boys and Girls Club in Haven Acres- 3288 Willie Moore Road.
Thanks to Tupelo Quality of Life this project is funded, however to make this happen we need volunteers! We have hosted a series of work days to construct the garden beds, install irrigation, and place gravel for walkways to replace the rotting and difficult-to-maintain infrastructure that was in place. Please join us for just a couple of hours to finish up this project!
The Boys & Girls Clubs of North Mississippi has undertaken the goal of mentoring young men and women by challenging and changing their mindsets to become leaders of tomorrow; their vision and selflessness gave us the inspiration to overhaul their community garden at the Haven Acres Club.
Keep Tupelo Beautiful wanted to give the children a place where they can be in contact with the soil and concurrently be mentored by positive role models who are teaching life skills and helping them become confident in themselves and their abilities. The children can learn how to prepare the soil and plant the seeds at the beginning of the growing season and reap the benefits through harvesting their handiwork.
