Original: In West Philly, Karen refugees put down roots in a community garden of their own
Karen refugees from Myanmar are cultivating a community garden in West Philadelphia, giving the community a space to grow traditional crops and put down roots in their new home. The project, covered by Billy Penn at WHYY, highlights how gardening helps refugees preserve cultural food traditions while building connections with neighbors in the city.
Why now: The story of refugees creating a cultural and community space through gardening resonates amid ongoing attention to immigrant and refugee resettlement.
