Rosalinda Sauro Sirianni Garden

Description

The Rosalinda Sauro Sirianni Garden is a community-supported, organic garden that grows fresh produce for food pantries operated by North Hills Community Outreach.

Incorporated in 1987, North Hills Community Outreach is an interfaith organization addressing the needs of people in crisis, hardship and poverty.

The garden is named in honor of that late Rosalinda Sauro Sirianni, a local resident whose family maintained a garden on the land since the early 1900s. As a mother of 5 children in the midst of the Great Depression, Rosalinda worked the land tirelessly year round to produce an abundance of fruits and vegetables that her children sold to the neighbors in town. The money earned from selling the produce helped not only to pay the bills but also to send all the children to college. Rosalinda’s daughter, Teresa Ameilo, donated the land to North Hills Community Outreach in 2008.
