Community Garden Opening Day of Service
April 23, 2016 | 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
On April 23, 2016, in celebration of Earth Day, the RBCDC officially opened the Riviera Beach Heights Community Garden, an integral part of a $1.5 million neighborhood beautification program in the city’s oldest neighborhood.
The grand opening event began with a dedication and recognition of land donors, Coy James Herring and Merry Herring. Riviera Beach-based Tropical Shipping was also recognized for their donation of a shipping container that will be used for storage.
The RBCDC is seeking volunteers to help grow the community garden. Volunteers will assist with planting and harvesting fruits, vegetables and herbs that will serve local residents and food banks as well as help with garden programs.
