      Abacoa Community Garden Celebrates 10th Anniversary


      And Honors Founders Tom And Liz Poulson




        The Abacoa Community Garden held a combination 10th
      Anniversary and Honoring of our founders Tom and Liz Poulson
      at the Abacoa Ampitheatre on May 18.
        The garden, with the aid of the Abacoa Property Owners
      Assembly, created a fenced in “zone” at the May 18 Erasmith
      concert produced by Legends Radio and Robinson Entertainment
      Productions. Garden members socialized and shared delicious
      and nutritious food and drinks, some of which came from the
      garden. One example was lemon grass tea made by our founder
      Liz Poulson. The area, with its tent festooned with banners of
      celebration, provided a place for other concertgoers to learn  Tom And Liz Poulson
      more about the garden and even share in the food. Before the
      concert began, garden members went to the stage area where they
      had an opportunity to tell concertgoers about the garden and its
      founders. Tom and Liz were presented with a bronze plaque that                                                     Photos by Johnny Simmons Photography
      has since been placed at the entrance to the garden as well as a
      book of remembrance. This includes pictures of the garden from
      inception to present, as well as tributes from garden members and             The Motowners: A Tribute
