Schraeter-Mowers expressed deep concern about the community garden's shift towards activism, stating it fosters hostility towards Jewish residents, creating an unsafe environment for her family.
She commented on the garden's selective inclusivity, claiming that while aiming for anti-discrimination, they are alienating Jewish community members, effectively creating their own form of exclusion.
Steph Herold criticized the garden for pushing out Jewish residents who disagree with its political stance, highlighting the community tensions arising from differing perspectives on Israel.
Residents feel that the garden, which aims for inclusivity, paradoxically becomes a space for promoting anti-Semitic sentiments, leading to fear among those who feel marginalized.
