Below:In 2020 We decided to provide photos that traced the community garden through its seasonal changes as seed, vegetable and plants grow. Ironically, this was the first year of the Covid-19 health orders including restrictions on group activities. However, that year, especially from March to mid May of 2020 during ‘stay at home orders’ and park and beach and school closures, the photo diary did show what a vital resource the community garden provides.(most images enlarge when you tap them on your mobile…if they don’t…you can tap and enlarge photos by spreading your fingers!!!! On your computer hit ctrl and plus sign!)
