The Community Garden at the Library was a huge part of our ¡Viva Corrales! celebration last year! Several artists and Corrales organizations collaborated to bring this project to life! Kids were able to plant vegetables with Master Gardner's and create plant markers out of pottery made here in the village. Local businesses partnered with the Corrales Society of Artists and Main Street to make a tile mural with kids in the village, containing some of their favorite Storybook creatures. Join us with your family to help plant this year's garden and come back to enjoy the park.
