M'finda Kalunga Community Garden

Meet the neighbors:

GreenThumb garden - The M’Finda Kalunga Community Garden began in 1982 as a group organizing to rid the Sara Roosevelt Park area of drugs and crime and to protect low-income housing and services in the neighborhood. This beautiful garden–almost a city block long–was born of that effort. Nearly thirty years later, some of the original organizers continue to garden at M’Finda Kalunga, along with many new friends, families and volunteers.

Garden members tend allocated plots and common areas, and periodically do garden-wide seasonal maintenance. There is a children’s area with a sandbox, a Bocce court and a patio area for events and gatherings. Tables and benches are dotted throughout the garden, where people can sit and picnic during open hours.
