Owensboro Kentucky H.L. Neblett Center and NorthWest Neighborhood Alliance Bring Community Garden Back to Life!

Buckner and Cottoner both agreed that their biggest need moving forward is volunteers. "We are watering the garden at least three times a week and are working on a schedule for students and current volunteers." Buckner explained. He also mentioned that they are having to carry buckets of water back and forth because there is not a water access point close enough. They are seeking options to fund a new water meter placement through OMU as the cost will be around $2500-$3000.
They are living proof of the power of community collaboration! A seed of an idea brought to fruition through hard work and generosity. If you would like to sign up for watering or weed-pulling duty or to donate to this amazing project, you can contact Stephanie Bertram at the The H.L. Neblett Center or Rafe Buckner with the NorthWest Neighborhood Alliance.
