What is the Great Perennial Divide?
For the past five years, gardeners from the entire St. Louis region have turned their trowels into weapons against urban decline by donating thousands of plants dug from their own yards during the Great Perennial Divide. Plants donated by these gardeners are shared with 160 Gateway Greening community gardens and citizen-managed green spaces in the inner city core. These beautiful gardens are located on formerly abandoned land in the heart of neighborhoods, boulevards, schoolyards, and street entrances.
