This project won 1st place in a Strengthening Communities grant. The garden is part of a home buyer education program which helps home buyers increase their property values. The client was United Housing Inc. The project was set to be built in the summer of 2015.
All plant species were selected to improve upon the Memphis ecosystem. Some plants attract beneficial insects, for example bees and butterflies, while other plants were chosen for their medicinal advantages. Most of the plants chosen are xeriscaping, these species save water efficiently.
