Logo for White Squirrel Community Garden featuring a cartoon squirrel holding a gardening trowel and a leaf.

When our community's only grocery store closed in late 2024, residents were faced with a new challenge. Rather than simply accept the loss, a local resident recognized the need for fresh produce and partnered with the City of Marionville for 2 seasons to create a solution.

The White Squirrel Community Garden is a testament to what can happen when residents, volunteers, city leaders, and community partners work together to meet local needs and invest in the future.

The White Squirrel Community Garden
is currently displaced, and looking for a new home.
