Thank you for wanting to learn more about the State Street Community Garden! As part of our Girl Scouts Silver Award project, we are working with the people of St. John’s Parish to plan a community garden to help with the struggle of food insecurity in Kirkland. Part of our project’s goal is to create sustainable change, and that is where we need your help!
In June, we prepared the garden space.
On July 27 and August 3, we worked together to plant the garden.
