Our Vision
A garden where the fence never keeps anyone out — where food, friendship, and faith grow in the same soil, and where our neighborhood knows the church shows up on ordinary Saturdays, not just Sunday mornings.
Why We Have a Community Garden
Too many families in our zip code live far from fresh, affordable produce. A garden answers a real need, teaches real skills, and puts people side by side long enough to become friends.
What We Grow
Collards, kale, tomatoes, peppers, okra, sweet potatoes, herbs, squash, and a pollinator border that keeps the whole garden humming.
Who We Serve
Neighborhood families, seniors on fixed incomes, our food pantry guests, and the community meals we host each month — no application, no questions asked.
Volunteer Opportunities
There's a Job for Every Pair of Hands
No experience needed — we'll teach you everything from seed trays to harvest boxes.
