Founded in 1939, the city began as “Industrial City Gardens” and shortly changed it’s name to Garden City. The city was founded and begun as a farm town where many prominent plantations sprouted, and people migrated to the city to work as farmers on these plantations. With the migration of these farmers into our city, many other types of workers followed - creating the diverse economy we have today.
