Warmland House Community Garden is an initiative that brings together residents of the Warmland House residence and the surrounding community to grow food from individual and community plots, as well as with urban fruit trees. Beginning in the Spring of 2010, this garden will provide a good source for fresh and local food and fruit, as well as medicinal gardens in the community's own backyard! This garden is located in the backyard of the Warmland House at 2579 Lewis St. and can be accessed off of Beverly Street.

A before shot, there isn't much to work with, just gravel.	A close up of the material at the warmland house, most plants would have a hard time growing in this	Luckily we found a source of sandbags to help make the gardens
Over the Christmas many volunteers helped out and moved the sandbags	Getting some wood for the green houses	Making lumber from raw logs, look at all those sandbags in the background
