🌱 Something is growing at Monica Roberts Place and Project T! 🌱

This week, Monica Roberts Place Coordinator Kennedy B. and Executive Director Ciora Thomas gathered supplies to begin resident-led gardens at both Monica Roberts Place and Project T.

The gardens are already off to a great start with tomatoes, peppers, strawberries, lettuce, basil, parsley, cilantro, mint, corn, marigolds, and zinnias. 🍅🌽🍓🌿🌼

As the cost of food continues to rise, we believe in creating opportunities for our residents to learn new skills, connect with one another, and have access to fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers right where they live.

Monica Roberts Place is SisTers PGH’s permanent supportive housing program serving Black and Brown transgender and non-binary adults. Residents will help maintain a rooftop garden designed to promote wellness, sustainability, community care, and access to fresh produce.

Project T is SisTers PGH’s transitional housing program for young Black and Brown transgender women. Residents will help care for and grow produce in the garden beds located on the property, creating opportunities for hands-on learning, responsibility, and shared care of their living space.

These gardens reflect the values that guide our work every day: community care, self-determination, wellness, food access, and investing in spaces where Black and Brown trans people can thrive.

Want to help our gardens grow? We are currently accepting donations of seeds, vegetable and herb plants, flowers, planters, garden beds, watering cans, watering tools, and other gardening supplies.

To coordinate a donation drop-off, please email info@sisterspgh.org. If you would like to make a financial contribution to support these projects, please visit www.sisterspgh.org/donate.

To learn more about Monica Roberts Place, Project T, and the other programs and services offered through SisTers PGH, visit www.sisterspgh.org.

We look forward to sharing updates as both gardens grow throughout the season. 💜🌱
