Mill Street Community Garden
The Mill Street Community Garden — a collaborative effort between Drug-Free Comal, Seeds of Love Outreach, and Connections — celebrated its grand opening in May 2024.
​
The garden, located at 1447 W. Mill St., is open to the public during daylight hours. Visitors can expect to discover a variety of seasonal flowers, fruits, vegetables, herbs, as well as picnic tables and swing seating.
​
The garden is maintained by a Guadalupe County Master Gardener with twice-monthly assistance from the young volunteers of Seeds of Love Outreach.
CONNECTIONS
Love Locks Wall
Whether you're celebrating a romantic relationship, a lifelong friendship, a family bond, or a personal milestone, our new Love Lock wall is a space to honor what matters most to you.
Simply make a $20 donation and we'll supply you with the lock and tools to engrave it with a name, date, or short message; then you can attach it to the wall as a lasting symbol of love and connection.
TEXAS YES PROJECT
Little Locker
Connections is proud to be the location of the 50th Little Locker in Texas. This locker is filled with books for school-aged kids (typically elementary- and middle-school ages) during the school year and outdoor activities, crafts, and art projects during the summer months.
Items in the Little Locker are free to families in the community thanks to the TEXAS YES Project and First Chance Foundation.
