With a big smile on her face, Serve Day volunteer Jessica Davis, of Westchester Avenue, works to help maintain landscaping in the community garden at the Weber Drive public housing project on Sunday, July 8. Serve Day, sponsored by Redemption Community Church, invited volunteers and gardeners to come out and help clean up the Port Chester Community Gardens, located at Weber Drive, Terrace Avenue and Drew Street housing complexes owned and operated by the Port Chester Housing Authority. Redemption Community Church meets Sunday mornings in one of the AMC Loews movie theaters in Port Chester.
