Our mission is to contribute to neighborhood vitality and stability through community gardens, community greening projects, food security programs, and educational programs. We accomplish this mission through alliances and joint projects with community groups and other organizations to provide the resources and knowledge that enable them to develop food producing gardens and landscaped areas on public land. We also work with area schools and institutions of higher learning to bring gardening programs into the classroom; educating children on the wonders of gardening through grow labs, vermicomposting, outdoor programs and other gardening activities.
