- Sr. Maria van Werkhooven, last year’s recipient of our Herban Renewal Grant, gave us an update of her community garden next door to her South Memphis home where she is encouraging neighbors’ participation. After the meeting, several people requested her contact information so they could share seeds, etc., for her garden. If you would like to reach Sr. Maria, you can contact her at 901-946-8220 or at mvanwerkhooven@bvmsisters.org.
