Our Purpose

To build an active space for the Elmwood community at Peace and Plenty Community Park. This group is dedicated to the ongoing maintenance and improvement of the park and its surroundings.

Summary of Projects

The Friends received a grant in 2009 to increase community awareness of, investment in and stewardship of the new Peace and Plenty Community Park by installing a information kiosk, maintained by neighbors and providing a place for local families, local community gardeners and others to share announcements about community improvement efforts, events at the park and garden and neighborhood activities.
