The Bear's Garden

A plant begins to grow in an urban area, and a little girl decides to take it on as her project, her “baby garden.” As she cared for the plant, more began to grow, and the area changed. People slowed down. People stopped to greet the girl. Then the girl had to leave, and she left her teddy bear in charge of the garden, and others began to care for the area. Out of that grew The Pacific Street Brooklyn Bear's Community Garden.

Inspiring story of the growth of a lovely community project from simple origins.
