UNDER OUR SPOTLIGHT 

  

  


The North Charles Garden 

  

  

Clients and councilors from Man Alive, Inc. have been working hard to clean up their adopted vacant lot, located at 2012 North Charles Street, in order to transform it into a garden. With the help of the Neighborhood Design Center, volunteer designers and a landscape architect have created plans for the site which include small fruit and flowering trees. The Baltimore Orchard Project will assist with teaching clients, councilors, and other volunteers how to grow and maintain fruit trees. This aspect of gardening will be incorporated into one of Man Alive Inc.’s counseling programs. 

  

The Charles Village Benefits District has made the cleanups possible by donating trash bags, lending tools to volunteers, and picking up filled trash bags after the cleanups. Cleanups take place every other Thursday, starting on January 17th, at 11am on the lot. Everyone is welcome to participate, so if you are interested in volunteering with the Man Alive Garden Club, please contact Mikah Zaslow at mzaslow at ndc-md.org or (443) 478-3609; or Grace Sweeney at gesweeney at manaliveinc.org or (410) 837-4292 ext. 406.
