Environmental Stewardship
South Bend Park Initiative 
We are excited to start the reforestation initiative of our neighborhood park! With the help of Katheryn Kolb and Jessica Muhammad from
 EcoAddendum as well as Terry Sutton from Cascade Springs Forestry, South Bend will receive improvements such as new trail designs and removal of invasive plants.

​
Children's Community Garden
​Once a week children will learn how to grow their own foods during planting and growing seasons. This year, we will partner with the South Bend Center for Arts & Culture to enroll students. View further details 
here.
