Henry "Mr. H" Hailey, a longtime presence in the neighborhood, pulls weeds from maturing vegetable plants in the Pigtown Food for Thought Community Garden. Begun in 2011 by residents concerned about access to fresh foods, the community garden gives those in the neighborhood garden space to grow their own vegetables. The group has expanded to two separate garden sites with produce made available at a weekly stand. Additional activities include programs designed to teach children about healthy eating while also getting them interested in gardening.
