Meet Ashley Hadley, Beauty’s Community Garden – Volunteer Instructor / Garden Coordinator! 🍎🍓🥬🥕

Howdy! My name is Ashley Hadley, Garden Coordinator/Volunteer Instructor at Beauty’s Community Garden. As a passionate gardener, I find joy in giving back to the community. Gardening is more than just cultivating beautiful flowers and nutritious produce; it’s also a way to promote sustainable living and connect with others. I’m constantly seeking opportunities to share my love of gardening and create positive change in the community. Let’s work together to cultivate something truly amazing!

Meet Yvette Leno, Owner Beauty’s Community Garden 🍎🍓🥬🥕

Yvette is driven by love of her community. “I am blessed and privileged to use the ground from my heritage to sow seeds that provide access to healthy fresh food, a basic human right.”

Yvette’s grandparents, Ernest and Beauty Leno, purchased property in 1926. Yvette, later inherited the land. In 1991, a devastating fire destroyed the family’s homestead. In 2012, Yvette repurposed the land into a community garden she named after her grandmother, “Beauty.”
