A new Community Garden is going in at East Cleburne Community Center! A big thank you to Cooks Children’s Hospital for supplying the materials and box lunches for today’s garden work day. This garden, located behind the old elementary school, is what we call an urban pocket garden. Many children that the center works with will benefit from the work done today. Master Gardeners worked along side other community volunteers to make the project a success.

We have had a lot of questions about this year's plant sale, so here is the information. Please note the new location!

We are excited to partner with Chisholm Trail Museum to provide a new and exciting plant sale experience!
