The Homewood Community Garden

Local Resources

  • Garden Dreams run by Mindy Schwartz sells wide variety of seedlings and organic gardening supplies.
  • Construction Junction is a good source for cheap used building material and supplies that you can adapt in your garden.
  • Ackerman Tree Service (412 512-1938) in Squirrel Hill has been helping us with their woodchips that they produce when taking down trees. The only web reference I have for them so far. Consider them when thinking of tree removals and other yard services.
  • East End Brewing Company will be giving us the remnants of their brewing process to add to our compost beds. This is great stuff to jump-start our composting.
