"Volunteers Improving Neighborhood Environments, INC. (VINES) is an organization committed to developing a sustainable and just community food system. We do this by bringing together diverse groups of people, with a focus on youth development, to establish community gardens, urban agriculture and community green spaces. We strive to develop and beautify urban sites and empower community members of all ages and abilities...Currently there are seven community garden sites, each in different stages of development...The Gregory Lane Community Garden is finished as of 2014, but still has room for further expansion and development in the future. The garden is located on the corner of Gregory Lane and Starr Avenue. The land for the garden was donated to VINES through the generous support of several neighbors who wanted to see the previously vacant lot developed into a beautiful greenspace. As of 2014, the garden contains 22 raised beds—two handicapped-accessible beds included— an ornamental flower garden and a rock garden populated with ornamental kale and succulent plants. Garden Rental Fee: $20 per plot (10×4 ft).

Current Status: 3-5 beds remaining (one special access bed for seniors/people with mobility issues)"
