the garden

Today we went to the garden for our orientation. We're not sure which plot is ours yet, but we can't wait to get started! Such an amazing project! An urban organic garden!! There are individual plots and a community garden as well. A 10% of the yield from the individual plots and all of the yield from the community garden goes to a local food pantry. All of the planting is done on top of an old tennis/basketball court in the old Cabrini-Green area.
We rode in the front car of the el on the way there... so the kids enjoyed looking out the front with the driver.

The "before" pictures....

And lastly... a pic from the platform as we waited for our train home.
Wow... I've been on a picture taking binge, haven't I?? :-)

'nite!
