Garden Blessing

The Old Town Community Garden Blessing was held on Saturday, March 31. We were greeted with a beautiful sunrise after a rain soaked week.

CCA Chaplain Paul Lucido led us in prayer, as we dedicated the Garden to God, asking His favor for a successful year of abundant crops as well as new friendships. Gardeners, CCA Staffers, and others joined together for a wonderful kick-off and planting began.

We were joined by Shawn and Ricky a reporter and photographer for the Dallas Morning News. A story of our Garden will appear in the Sunday, April 15, edition of the Dallas Morning News, Metro section.

The following photos provide a hint of the fun, enthusiasm, and blossoming friendships that are also growing in the Garden!
