San Marcans with green thumbs or a passion for gardening have the opportunity to visit and start growing at the San Marcos Neighborhood Gardens.
Community members can lease a 10x20-foot plot space to grow fruits, vegetables, flowers or herbs of their choice at either the Dunbar Garden located at 303 S. Mitchell St. or the Alamo Garden located at 1224 Alamo St.
“We wanted to give people a place to garden if they couldn't garden at home and we wanted also to provide fresh produce for the food bank, which at that time wasn't getting much fresh produce. So those were two main goals at the time and to build community,” said Betsy Robertson, founding member of Sustainable San Marcos.
