Fruit Orchard Installation at Gus Garcia University School
What an incredible showcase of community spirit and action as Able City partnered with Gus Garcia and Texas A&M University-San Antonio to plant an entire fruit orchard of 25 trees!
Together with the City of San Antonio's Parks and Recreation, Able City is converting San Antonio into a food forest, one school at a time, transforming spaces into more vibrant and nutritious locations.
These trees have automatic irrigation with bubblers and added t-posts to ensure they grow healthy for the years to come.
By the end of the decade, this asset will become a food forest for students, families, and community members in the Westside of San Antonio and beyond.
Fruit trees provide shade, air purification, stress reduction, habitat, aesthetic beautification, and, most importantly, access to high-quality organic food!
