Greetings!
About Us
Creation Care is a non-profit organization with the goal of promoting healthy living through our natural park that features nature trails and sitting areas for peace, meditation and tranquility. Our green space includes a community garden, walking trails and playgrounds to encourage various levels of physical activity. The land provides play areas for children and large space for entertainment.
Our working garden offers healthy food and herbs for the community and also serves as a year round teaching garden partnering with local schools to educate the next generation on life science, agriculture and entrepreneurship opportunities in urban gardening. For adults, we provide gardening tips, classes and hands-on experiences for maintaining their own garden onsite or at home.
Our Story
Formed in 2011, the mission for Creation Care is “Working with our land to transform our community”. The vision stretches beyond growing wholesome food. It includes a commitment to unveil the natural beauty that lies right in our midst. The land has been handsomely endowed with rolling elevation, a winding creek, a bamboo forest, stones and natural shrubs; all neatly hidden under the brush. Creation Care designed a walking trail with prayer stations along the way. Areas have been cleared for an “open-air sanctuary” for prayer, meditation, or serenity. With a few additional enhancements, the area is now made available for community events such as weddings, reunions and entertainment.
Creation Care has built upon and followed the path of transforming our community to engage in healthier eating habits and more physical activities to offset the alarming rate of diet related illnesses (obesity, high blood pressure, heart attacks and stroke) of members of our Lithonia community.
