As you may recall, on April 29, 2020, the Kinston Police Department discovered the worst vandalism ever at the 16-year-old Children’s Garden on Lincoln Street. Damage to the storage building, sculptures, landscaping, irrigation system and theft of equipment greatly exceeded the previous eight incidents of vandalism. It rendered the Lincoln Street site unusable, left the Children’s Garden in limbo and has required its sponsors, Lenoir County Extension Master Gardeners, to search for a new home for this unique and valuable project.
