About the Project

The Garden on Gearing is a small community garden in the neighborhood of Beltzhoover, next door  to the Beltzhoover Neighborhood Council office. Gordon envisions that in the coming years the garden will be a place of inter-generational education centered around food. Activities will be held at the site next season for people of all ages to learn growing techniques, cooking skills and fruit tree tending.

In the future, a large mural at the site will be designed by a local artist and painted by neighborhood youth.

A strong partnership with Voices Against Violence, Beltzhoover Neighborhood Council, as well as other community-based organizations have been and will be a great asset for the Garden on Gearing.
