Garden Project

• To raise money, food and in-kind contributions for meeting the emergency food needs of the greater Lansing area;
• To coordinate and support the work of the food pantries in the area;
• To promote, encourage and emphasize self-help programs toward the goal of self-sufficiency; and
• To educate the community on hunger issues.

The Garden Project is a program of the Greater Lansing Food Bank dedicated to growing healthy food and cultivating community connections. The Garden Project provides gardining opportunities so that community members can grow, harvest, and preserve their own vegetables and fruits. Through the cultivation of fresh food, The Garden Project aspires to create community connections as families and neighbors garden together, fostering a sense of pride in well-tended gardens that serve as community gathering spaces.
