On the way to the library, Sadiq and his family pass an empty lot in their neighborhood. It looks like it could use some attention. Sadiq and his brothers and sisters come up with ideas for what the lot could be. A playground? A skatepark? Then a science unit about plants at school gives Sadiq and Hooyo another idea—a community garden! But where to begin? And how to get people involved? It’s up to Sadiq and his classmates to “dig in” and make the community garden a success!
