Community Garden
705 Bowen St. Savanna
A
group of Savanna residents wanted a community garden and to be part of the
Plant-A-Row for the Hungry Program. Carroll
County Master Gardener Connie Zink spearheaded the project, was offered the back
yard of a vacant house with southern exposure, then she and her colleagues got
busy removing sod, rototilling and planting.
This is the first year for this project. Twenty-three pounds of
vegetables have been donated to the Savanna Food Pantry with more coming in
spite of heavy rains, and flooding, last month.
