Hillcrest residents Kathy Chamberlain and Gladys Miller adopted this stretch of land at the intersection of Ft. Baker Drive and W Street, S.E. in Hillcrest. This formerly weedy area attracted trash and litter. Garden Resources of Washington (GROW) and DC neighbors from as far away as Palisades, N.W., contributed plants. Others donated topsoil and labor. The Department of Public Works saved the garden from the summer drought of '99 by delivering water. DPW and the National Park Service occasionally provide compost.
