Recently, members of the Buena Vista Township and Public Works Department renovated the Dr. Martin Luther King Community Garden in Newtonville. The footprint of the existing garden was adjusted and the aged wood garden beds removed. Thirteen new galvanized raised garden beds were built and installed. The improved garden design gives seniors in Newtonville the ability to garden comfortably. The community garden serves approximately fifty seniors who visit the Community Center and Food Bank on a regular basis. The new garden contains a variety of fruits and vegetables that will supplement the seniors for the season.
