There is love in the heart of the city. An example is Wheat Street Garden. The largest of its kind in our great city, it was built on the recultivated remains of the Wheat Street Projects. And now it's on both sides of the street, it's truly a thing of beauty. ♥ #TrulyLivingWell #TLW.

While sitting in my car waiting for the main #cityfarmers to arrive, I got an early winter shot of #PatchworkCityFarms in #southwest #atlanta. #urbanfarmsatlanta #urbanfarmsatl #volunteering

Making a difference. Churches are now taking matters into their own hand and are feeding the community one basket of fresh food at a time. I would love to know what other churches have #urbanfarms in their "backyard"? #urbanfarmsatlanta #urbanfarmatl #goodshephardcommunitychurch #churchfarm #goodshephard

To encourage community involvement at #patchworkcityfarms they have open plots for anyone to come and grow-- food, flowers, whatever your heart desires! Such a wonderful idea ♥. #urbanfarmsatlanta #urbanfarmsatl

My weekly adventures of volunteering at urban farms continues! I'm back at Wheat Street Garden, this time for MLK Day. There were over 300 volunteers! We helped gardener Patience in the herb garden (zone 8). They might not look like much now, but even their woody stems smelled great! Rosemary, basil, thyme, etc. I can't wait until Spring ♥. #urbanfarmsatlanta #urbanfarmsatl #trulylivingwell #handsonatlanta #mlkday #mlkdayatl #twl #urbanfarm #herbgarden

I'm a sugarholic, but on a good week I curb my cravings with healthy sweets, so sweet potatoes become my best friend! I've perfected my sweet potato soufflé recipe. (S/O to Trader Joes for having sweet potatoes at just $1.69 per bag... one of these days I'll be growing my own♥) #urbanfarmsatlanta #urbanfarmsatl #traderjoes #sweetpotato

City chickens. I volunteered at Patchwork City Farms a couple months ago. We mended and cleaned the coop. #urbanfarmsatlanta #urbanfarmsatl

Grow collards grow! One of the cool things about volunteering on #urbanfarms is learning/seeing when certain plants grow. #darkleafygreens #wintergreens

My first instagram, very exciting. This photo is from a few weeks ago when I volunteered at an #urbanfarm located at The Good Shepherd Community Church. This volunteer event was apart of the Falcon's "Rise Up Atlanta" campaign. It was very VERY cold that day, and I broke a nail, lol. #girlproblems #volunteering #urbanfarmsATL
