This large site contains over twenty raised beds for growing vegetables and flowers and many mature trees. The garden provides a much-needed open space for the crowded immigrant communities in Corona and also maintains a relationship with P.S. 127. Neighbors of many different ethnic groups and ages have a chance to meet here and share knowledge brought with them from diverse homelands. Use of this property is restricted by zoning to open space uses only. This garden has the support of community board 3 to remain a permanent garden site.
