Garden Programs

Our programs and projects reflect The Growing Project's mission and vision of connecting our community members to each other, their food, and their land through urban agriculture and community gardening.


TGP Programs

• Urban Foods Outreach: Creates residential gardens, where excess produce is donated to people and families in need.
• Garden Time: Horticulture Therapy program for at-risk youth.
• Food Finders: A network of bicycle volunteers that work with local farmers, farmer's markets, and gardens to pick up excess produce and donate it to families in need.
• Teens for Food Justice is an 8 week program working with teens from a diversion program to learn about the local food system and food insecurity, gain pre-vocational skills, garden, and cook.  Session ends with a youth-led service project addressing food insecurity. 
• TGP University: low-cost or donation-based classes on gardening, foraging, natural building, and more!
