About Us

ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW

City Blossoms is a nonprofit that cultivates the well-being of our communities through creative programming in kid-driven gardens. We envision cities with abundant, accessible green spaces where communities thrive and children build lifelong connections to the natural world. Applying our unique brand of gardens, science, art, healthy living, and community building, we "blossom" in neighborhoods where kids, their families, and neighbors may not otherwise have access to green spaces.


ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE

City Blossoms strives to create a work environment and programs based on our values:

  • EQUITY. Strive to ensure access and inclusion for all
  • DIVERSITY. Celebrate everyone's strengths and experiences
  • RESPECT. Nurture compassion and consideration for all living things
  • COLLABORATION. Enhance our impact by joining together
  • CREATIVITY. Cultivate open-mindedness and experimentation


City Blossoms' programming is tailored to meet the unique needs of the communities we collaborate with. We develop multi-year partnerships with other community-based organizations and schools and incorporate direct feedback from our participants, to support the growth and sustainability of each project. Each garden reflects the creativity and passion of the children and youth who use them. Learn more about our model here.
