This year, the Native Wellness Garden is celebrating its 10th anniversary of keeping tradition and culture alive. It’s located at 3780 S 6th Street on Milwaukee’s South Side. The garden is an extension of the Gerald L. Ignace Indian Health Center, which provides comprehensive and culturally sensitive health care for Native American children and adults living in the Milwaukee area.

Lisa Albrecht works as a health promotion and disease prevention leader at the center. She also volunteers in the garden and has seen it grow since day one. She said it’s been such a blessing for the community they serve.
