West+Street+and+Fifteenth

Propel Andrew Street High School service learning class is going to clean and plant gardens at the corner of West and 15th streets in Homestead. There is an untended community garden with a mural that has not been planted for the last two years due to the death of the youth leader in our community who started the garden with teens in the Steel Valley. We would like to clean and re-visit this community garden in his honor. Any or all are invited to help clean, plant, water, and donate. This is a heavily trafficked area as it is a main commutor route for people coming to Pittsburgh from the South Hills area. The Service learning class wants to work on the walk way, the flower mounds, and possibly add a bench. The borough of Homestead has been contacted to the work that will be done there. A member of the class will be attending the april council meeting to talk about the proposals.
