A Tribute to Julie Samuels

We mourned this summer over the loss of our dear gardening friend and mentor Julie Samuels, who passed away on July 19, 2024.

A Celebration of Life was held for her in August in Oak Park. Many from CCGA attended and spoke warmly of Julie sharing their experiences working with Julie. An ad hoc committee from CCGA is working to create a tribute to her and we will share their decision soon.

If you have any stories to share of Julie, please do send them to us at: communications@chicagocommunitygardens.org ;

or join us on Facebook at:https://www.facebook.com/ChicagoCommunityGardenersAssociation/

and we can help share our treasured memories of our time working with Julie Samuels.
