Dunwoody Community Garden
Located within the 102-acre Brook Run Park, the Dunwoody Community Garden & Orchard was founded in 2009 with 60 raised-bed plots and expanded to 92 plots in 2011. The garden donates approximately 20% of the produce grown to charity.

Past Chair and current Greenhouse Manager Art Simon welcomed me for an introductory tour of the greenhouse, the community garden, and the apiary.
