The 2024 Reservoir Award was given to the more than two dozen volunteers who continually develop and maintain the seven community gardens in Upper Monroe. These gardens grow strong relationships in addition to growing plants and flowers. In addition, they are a constant reminder to neighbors and visitors of the caring community that lives in Upper Monroe.

Community Garden locations

The gardens/planters may be found at the corner of Monroe Avenue and Culver Road; along the parkway median on Werner Park; at the corner of Monroe Avenue and Belmont Street (Located on private property with permission from the owners, George & Margot Novak); at the corner of Monroe Avenue and Rosedale Street; at the corner of Monroe Avenue and Laburnam Crescent (Located on private property with permission from the owners, PathStone Inc.); along the sound barrier wall along Laburnam Crescent; and at the intersection of Monroe Avenue and Engel Place.
