Khmer Maine breaks ground on Welcome Garden

WESTBROOK, ME — Khmer Maine and Watt Samaki have officially broken ground on the Welcome Garden and entrance for the planned development of an Asian American Community Center and Buddhist temple complex in Westbrook!

The Welcome Garden will feature a community garden, picnic tables, statues, and parking for public trail access.

If you or your organization would like to learn and support our vision, please visit aaccmaine.org  or contact Marpheen Chann  at Marpheen@khmermaine.org.

Thank you Woods Excavation and Acorn Engineering, Inc. for joining us and your support on this project.

This milestone brings us one step closer to creating a vibrant space featuring:

    Botanical Gardens showcasing diverse plant life and heritage

    Community Gardens where neighbors can grow and share fresh produce

    Trails for walking, reflection, and connection with nature

From cultural celebrations to educational programs and support services, our vision for this center goes beyond bricks and mortar. It will be a welcoming hub for everyone, fostering belonging, wellness, and a deeper understanding of Maine’s Asian American and Pacific Islander community.

We couldn’t do this without our amazing partners, generous donors, and dedicated volunteers. Thank you for believing in the power of community and helping us lay the foundation for a brighter, more inclusive future.

Stay tuned for updates as we work together to bring this transformative project to life!
