Youth Space... Permaculture Gardening - The Garden of Youth, a collaboration with Life Center for Youth and Adults, was begun on the grounds of the Life Center's facility on Agua Fria Street in Santa Fe during the summer of 1999. Coordinated by YouthSpace Garden Director Leif Hallberg, residents of the Santa Fe Youth Shelter, Americorps volunteers, and Life Center's teen staff members created a beautiful garden, with herb, vegetable and flower beds, a fish pond, a bridge across the arroyo, a nature walk, and an outdoor classroom. Local businesses gave generously of their time and materials to help make this garden a reality. Among them were Plants of the Southwest, Paynes Nursery, Santa Fe Stone, Oasis Water Design, Wal-Mart, and Jackalope. If you would like to visit the Garden, or volunteer your time, skills, equipment, or funding, call the Life Center at (505) 424-1404.
