June Key Delta garden focuses on African American health | OregonLive.com: "The neighborhood surrounding the Peninsula Park Rose Garden is about to look a lot greener. Neighbors of the June Key Delta Community Center, located on the corner of N Albina and N Ainsworth, have watched the Living Building Challenge remodel of the gas station since last August, but on May 29 neighbors noticed hard hat-clad volunteers preparing the land for a garden on the lot adjacent to the ongoing project.

The garden won’t be plotted out and sold to the community. Instead, Delta Sigma Theta, the organization that owns the gas station and the land, will use it as a tool to teach healthy eating habits, urban agriculture and sustainable living practices."
