Our little neighborhood is making it's mark on the Green Map! Thanks to Marie Salas, the garden's manager, and her gardening friends, that have made our community garden a place of growth, both in the creative and the green sense. El Sereno benefits highly from this meeting place. Not only do they plant all kinds of healthy eats, but they share knowledge and earth wisdom which is easily forgotten in the concrete jungles most of us inhabit today. The garden makes a clear difference in our neighborhood, but it is now being recognized by the American Community Gardening Association. They have been invited to participate in the 30th Annual Conference in Columbus Ohio on August 6th-9th, 2009. An El Sereno Community Garden member will fly over, accompanied by the LA Conservation Corp and the Los Angeles Community Garden Council, to represent our small oasis. We can't help but be so proud of the local gardeners and this accomplishment!
