Spring in the Garden 2020

Crown Community Garden is hosting the second annual Spring in the Garden Festival on April 4th 1:30-6:00pm.

Our mission is to engage kids, families and adults ready to create a better quality of life in the East.

The festival will be held at Crown Garden (19 Marywood ct.) with additional parking at 11721 Morrison Rd. You are invited to experience the work of the garden first hand including gardening demonstrations, plant swap, healthy cooking demos by NOE hospital, kids activities and garden scavenger hunt.

Morrison/Gannon Clean up

Morrison/Gannon Clean up

  • Morrison Road New Orleans, LA United States (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Crown Community Garden has 50 Navy volunteers signed up to start clean up on the long stretch of lots Morrison Rd. that has been a dumping ground (see map). We hope to:

1. Remove most of the trash that's spilling onto the road

2. Remove enough brush so sidewalks are clear for travel

3. Set up a deterrent for future dumpers (No dump signs, possibly a small fence??)

We are still working out a few more details (Dumpsters, supplies donations, city involvement, catering), but are well on our way. You are welcome to join in that day or if there is something you are willing to do before hand, we're glad to have the help. If you are at all interested message me, or join us Saturday April 14th - 3:00 @ Crown of Life Fellowship hall 11721 Morrison Rd. We'll discuss this project and other potential projects to help our neighborhoods.
