garden that allows visitors to grow tomatoes, okra, cucumbers, squash, basil, melons, and other fruits and vegetables.

With the support of volunteers, Athens Land Trust and the University of Georgia (including horticulture professor David Berle, who helped build the garden) ACCA has built two community garden spaces and developed a monthly garden club.
