Get involved!

We need to get the attention of 5th Ward Alderman Desmon Yancy, the Chicago Plan Commission (which will hold a hearing about the property on October 19, see below), and any community organizations that have an interest in the quality of life for Woodlawn’s residents. 

Subscribe to the email list here, come to the October 19 hearing (details below), sign the petition, talk to your neighbors, or just reach out at community@blackstonegarden.org… Whatever way works for you, join us and help save the garden!
