about us
Down to Earth Community Gardens, a volunteer-run non-profit organization that aims to empower people to grow their own organic produce through the provision of free garden beds, seeds, education and resources.
Our gardeners contribute to local food banks, host free farmers markets, deliver produce to seniors, offer access to emergency food boxes, and more.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide space and education for people to grow their own food and offer fresh produce to area food banks. We give FREE garden beds, FREE seeds, FREE education, and access to FREE resources to help grow organic produce.
Our Values
We believe deeply in the empowerment of the individual to grow their own healthy food. We strive to use the most environmentally friendly gardening methods and sustainable practices in all that we do.
Help us grow our impact
Since 2017 we have been working to empower individuals to grow their own food and to provide organic produce to other people in our communities. In addition to the education and resources we’ve built the physical gardens for 1,110 locations (and counting!). We have focused on utilizing lumber otherwise destined for landfills rescuing and repurposing hundreds of truckloads of materials.
