is a wonderful community garden, resource and meeting space. Their mission is “To be a center of peace and beauty in the community where the cultivation of vegetables, fruits and flowers as well as creative ideas, artistic expression and neighborly values may take place. The Milagro Allegro Community Garden integrates urban farming, art and education in the heart of the Highland Park neighborhood. Garden plots will be available for interested community members. A community gathering space will host classes, workshops and events. Local schools may incorporate the garden into curriculum or after-school activities.”
