Coordinator Notes: 
Liberty Community Services, Inc. operates the Springside Garden in Westville. Residents of Liberty Safe Haven, a supportive housing community, as well as participants in their Day Program for homeless individuals enjoy maintaining a garden each summer. Twice a week, these volunteers visit the Springside site where they are growing everything from flowers and corn to herbs and melons. One homeless participant says, “I love going to the garden. It makes me feel good to see that I am helping something grow. I always feel better after going there.” For more information on Liberty Community Services, Inc. please visit www.libertycs.org.
