We knew of a seriously neglected community garden near us that needed some love, so brothers and sisters spent weeks organizing an “extreme makeover” of the space. The goal was to give back to the neighbors something that would be good for everyone and build a sense of community among the residents.
That would be awesome, right?
What would you do if time and money were no object? Seriously. Give yourself permission to dream a little here. In fact, while you’re at it, dream bigger!
Thanks for asking Chris, I have been EXACTLY where you’re at, and it can seem daunting to say the least!
