At last: a Water Source in the garden!

3/29/2025

0 Comments

 
As you may have noticed, we’ve had a major construction project in the garden this past year.  It was to install our very own on-site water source!  For decades gardeners at 6BC have had to access water from the street hydrants. 

Many thanks respectively go to GreenThumb and the Parks Dept., City Council, the Mayor’s office and the contractor, Ruben’s Group, Inc. for initiating, funding, overseeing and completing this project. 

Our neighbors on our eastern side were also repointing their brickwork last year.  As a result, a landscaping/ rat abatement project along the north eastern wall of the garden (behind the fish pond) had to be delayed.  Please bear with us as we put all these sections of the garden back together in a new and purposeful way!  

Thanks to members Merica, John and Janene for the photos.
