🌱 Our Community Garden: Growing Together

A Green Oasis in Evergreen Estates

Welcome to the heart of our neighborhood’s restoration project! In partnership with San Jose Parks & Recreation Services and the Adopt-a-Park program, the Evergreen Estates Neighborhood Association (EENA) is breathing new life into our local community garden.

Whether you have a lifelong passion for plants or are looking to develop a brand-new hobby, there is a place for you here. No prior experience is needed—just a love for our community and a willingness to get your hands dirty! 🧤✨

🚀 Next Up: Meeting #2 – Let's Get to Work!

Our second meeting is where the physical transformation truly begins. We’ll be moving beyond planning and starting the hands-on restoration.
🗓 Date: Saturday, March 14, 2026
🕙 Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 NOON
📍 Location: Right behind the Evergreen Community Center (4860 San Felipe Rd.)

What we’ll be doing:
Bed Maintenance: Prepping the soil for a productive season.
Replanting Succulents: Adding hardy, beautiful greenery to the space.
Building Together: Working on our new garden shed and cart.

🛠 What to bring: If you're joining the build team for the shed, please bring a long-sleeved shirt, safety glasses, and work gloves. All other necessary gardening tools will be provided!
