Community Gardens and Soils

The Macon Roots organization which promotes community gardening in Macon,the Beall's Hill Neighborhood Association, and Centenary Church have a wonderfully productive garden located in the green space behind Centenary Church on Ash Street.  Its twelve raised beds are communal.  There are no individual plots and the harvest is shared.  The folks who volunteer reap a harvest of fresh vegetables and sense of purposeful community.
