MSU Delta Project Team Builds Community Garden in Rolling Fork

October 15, 2024

In June, the Delta Project Team visited Rolling Fork, MS, a small town in the heart of the Delta. During their visit, they met with residents and constructed new community garden beds. The gardens serve to create green space, offer accessible source of fresh produce, strengthen community relationships, and provide educational opportunities about gardening and sustainability. People of all ages from the Rolling Fork community joined in to plant a variety of crops, making it a collaborative effort to bring the gardens to life.
