2025: A Year in Review
This time of year reminds us of the importance of connection, reflection, and gratitude. We achieved huge milestones this year: New Year’s day marked the effective date of the garden’s incorporation, quickly followed by 501(c)(3) status. We planted the first 5 fruit trees of our food forest project and raised over $7,000 through fundraising, donations, in-kind contributions, and grants.
Volunteers carried us forward at every step, from building plots to tending beds, watering, weeding, and harvesting produce for donation. As we close the year, we’re proud not only of what we built, but of the resilient, connected community that grew alongside it. Because of hard work and passion for this urban green space, our garden thrives.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the participants in our community for their invaluable contributions.
Happy Holidays from Mid Shooks Run Community Garden.
See you next year.
