The Love & Peas Community Garden Project was officially founded and named on July 8th, 2013 by members of Go Green, Meridian! This project is intended to educate and inspire not only avid gardeners, but to demonstrate and benefit the local community by providing volunteer opportunities, fresh produce, and the atmosphere to encourage people to "grow your own!"
A garden cannot maintain itself; it needs both fiscal and hands-on support from our community. In partnering with local businesses, groups, and sponsors, Love & Peas will have the foundation to integrate our schools, churches, and other organizations in an effort to bring our community together in an attempt to live sustainably and "Go Green, Meridian!"

Love Your NeighborRobert Earl was a "country boy" with such a big heart of Love and Peace that it ran over onto everyone around him. He believed so strongly in helping his neighbor that he put that belief into action daily; therefore, the challenge of growing food with community is exactly what he was passionate about.
The Love & Peas garden brings together Robert Earl's love of nature and the opportunity to love one's neighbor through our actions perfectly. What a special tribute! Love & Peas, Ceil (daughter of Robert Earl & Go Green volunteer) |
