Trash to Treasures: Community Gardens Built | Omaha News
Description
A grassroots cleanup crew called “Leave It Better When You Found It” turned Benson Park into a beacon of community action—collecting trash not just to clear space, but to build gardens in food-desperate neighborhoods across Nebraska. Founder Michael Young, inspired by his family’s gardening roots, was stunned by the massive turnout and the power of collective goodwill. With plans to expand beyond Benson Park, this initiative proves that cleaning up isn’t just about tidying—it’s about transforming trash into treasure and rebuilding neighborhood pride, one garden at a time.
