It keeps me going. I am doing something that I am proud of.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Al Dalgamouni started the business six years ago. His two sons and nephew also helped with the installation, turning the project into both a family experience and a lesson in giving back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">\u201cThat\u2019s going to be a very huge lesson for them. Give back! Give back. Listen, this county gave us so much. The least we can do is just give something back,\u201d said Dalgamouni.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">For Leno, the new system means the garden can continue serving the community without worrying about how to keep it watered.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">\u201cIt means everything to the garden.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">When she saw the completed system, Leno celebrated the moment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">\u201cWhoo! My gosh, we don\u2019t have to worry anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Leno said she always believed the garden would eventually get the help it needed, but she didn\u2019t expect it to happen so quickly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">\u201cI know that if it doesn\u2019t happen one way, it will happen another way, but it will happen. But sure enough, it happened through Channel 2.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">And the help doesn\u2019t stop with the installation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">Al Dalgamouni and his team told Leno that if the sprinkler system ever needs repairs, she can call them \u2014 and they\u2019ll return to help at no charge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">For Beauty\u2019s Community Garden, it\u2019s one more reason to keep growing. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">The garden is not only known for the work it has done in it\u2019s community, but also the surrounding area. On Saturday October 3rd, they will be deeply involved in the Food Is Medicine: A Community Celebration of Health, Culture &amp; Sustainability event. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-dLMFU sc-fHjqPf jbiTJv kYFPaL article-text\">For more information contact Beauty\u2019s Community Garden. <\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 by KPRC Click2Houston &#8211; All rights reserved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"HOUSTON \u2013 Beauty\u2019s Community Garden in Independence Heights has a new sprinkler system, thanks to a local business&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":448325,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[12599,14138,1010,405,56,58,57,154459,154458,27],"class_list":["post-448324","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-houston","tag-2-helps-you","tag-gardening","tag-giving-back","tag-harris-county","tag-houston","tag-houston-headlines","tag-houston-news","tag-positivity","tag-sprinklers-by-design","tag-texas"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/448324","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=448324"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/448324\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/448325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=448324"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=448324"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=448324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
