Building A Sustainable Garden

Youth empowerment 2020

Change will not come if we wait for some other person, or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

Reimagine Gary with us! 
In 2019 we held a discussion in the park with teens to discuss the community and their challenges.  This year we are responding to their request for help during the summer months by offering $15.00 stipends to all teens who give back by participating in cleanup events.  With responsible social distancing, we will continue to move our agenda to clean the community forward!  Your support is key to helping these teens as they help us in the neighborhoods.

Covid-19 has changed our 2020 schedule of events nonetheless we are still determined that our neighborhoods will move forward with plans to strengthen the community and engage each other though respect with responsible social distancing!  

We have moved our plans to plan flowers back based on the pandemic requirement.  We will update the website as we receive more information.  Follow us on Facebook for the most up to date information on GCP
We've cleared the land and have started planting the community garden for everyone's enjoyment!  Join in the fun as we plant our final 6 beds June 13th or help us throughout the summer prepare for fall harvest!
