ENVIORMENTAL NEIGHBORHOOD YIELDS GROWTH & ACHIEVEMENT
ENY IS A COMMUNITY OF GARDENS
THERE ARE LESS THAN 100 GARDENS SITES LEFT. WE CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE TO KEEP THE GARDENS ALIVE.
Homeowners who refused to leave ENY, took garbage filled lots and turned them into a community place to grown hard to find produce in there neighborhood. Some just wanted flowers, or a meetings place for summer events and a safe haven for the many young people during the hot summer. Some lots were small some were big but they all required volunteers and hard work to achive an enviornmental place filled with beauty.
