The Growing Project Gardens
The Growing Project has built many gardens over the years and have assisted in the maintenance of many others. We have many different types of gardens:
At this time The Growing Project doesn't have community garden plots open to the public. For the most part we work with partner organizations to work in low-income neighborhoods. For people interested in gardening please consider volunteering at our home base garden. For more info click HERE. All volunteers are welcome to take produce home.
- Friends of TGP: The Growing Project helps build and maintain gardens at with other organizations/business. We are not always super involved in these gardens but always provide materials and advice for budding gardeners. We work closely with The Family Center/La Familia to implement garden programming at their facility.
- Home Base: The Mothership is our 1/4 acre garden space. We hold weekly volunteer hours here, workshops, and youth programming with the nonprofit Sproutin' Up.
- Fort Collins Housing Authority: The Growing Project works closely with Fort Collins Housing Authority to install and maintain community gardens in low-income neighborhoods.
- Low-income: The Growing Project works with Habitat for Humanity and various mobile home parks to install and maintain community gardens in low-income neighborhoods.
