Many people to thank for Holly Street garden project
Nick Morgan wrote a beautiful article about our Holly Street Community Garden. We are so grateful for all the help and support from folks in the Rogue Valley, and continue to be.
One organization that deserves a big shout out is the Southern Oregon Landscape Association. This is a group of professional landscapers and landscape architects who chose our garden for a public service project.
Cody Scoggins (Medford Water Commission) and Ed Karlan (Yankee Clipper Landscaping) spearheaded the project. They brought in Jose Leal (Bella Aurora), Alan Tuck (Alan Tuck Landscapes), and Scott Bradley (Backflow and Landscape Irrigation).
Finally, Mr. Scoggins was successful in requesting that Ewing Plumbing Supply donate all the PVC pipe and fittings we needed.
The joining together in dedication to community, and the generosity of time, labor and equipment buoys my faith in human nature. It was a gift that will last the garden and our community for a very long time!
