  1. Congratulations and thank you! These ladies work so hard every week. They clean up unspeakable garbage and are so dedicated to keeping this area gorgeous!

  2. These volunteers are tireless and their dedication has paid off for the entire neighborhood. Visitors forget this is a public landmark and often leave trash in the garden, although the trash can is 10 feet away. Pets are also allowed to roam the gardens and leave reminders that they have been there. Despite these obstacles, these volunteers preserve and make it a lovely urban garden. Kudos to you!
