We’re saddened to share that our community garden—lovingly tended by local children and dedicated volunteers—has been taken, and many of the vegetables we’ve grown together are gone.
This garden is more than just plants; it’s a space for learning, connection, and giving back. We’re asking for your help to spread the word and protect this special place.
Please share this post with your friends and family.
If you see or hear anything, let us know.
Let’s work together to keep our garden safe and thriving.
Thank you PY Team x
