The ceremony will take place at the Tri-Cities Cancer Center campus located at 7350 W. Deschutes Avenue in Kennewick in the Wellness Center parking lot at the back of the building.

Attendees will be asked to wear masks and social distance. There will be brief announcements, photos, and a garden rendering. Official construction of the garden will begin the week of April 19th and continue into early May.

Studies by the American Community Garden Association and MD Anderson Cancer Center show that community gardens bring tremendous value and immense aid to cancer patients. Food produced by the Cancer Crushing Community Garden will be utilized in our Cancer Crushing Cuisine cooking classes, as well as given to our cancer patients as part of our DINE IN patient meals program.
