The Keep Laredo Beautiful Board Meeting held on March 19, 2025, focused on revitalizing a community garden and enhancing local environmental education. Board members discussed a collaboration with Master Gardeners to improve the neglected garden, which has been underutilized and poorly maintained due to a lack of oversight.

One board member expressed enthusiasm for the potential partnership, highlighting the need for educational programs to guide the community in effectively using the garden space. The discussion emphasized the importance of providing resources and knowledge to local workers and students, enabling them to take ownership of the garden's upkeep and development.

The meeting also touched on plans for a larger community event, where students would participate in various environmental activities, including tree planting and invasive plant removal. This initiative aims to foster community involvement and promote environmental stewardship among local youth.

Overall, the meeting underscored a commitment to enhancing Laredo's green spaces and engaging the community in sustainable practices. The board plans to continue discussions with Master Gardeners and other stakeholders to solidify their collaborative efforts and ensure the success of the community garden project.
