Expand Community Gardening  

In Livingston Park we hope to

Most of what we grow, was started at home by local community members. Until we have a greenhouse, we welcome your home-grown experiments! Food, flowers, anything you like. We will work it in! Our garden design will always include your personal touches. 

Experiments Encouraged!

For the past year, we have been growing succulent planters to sell for gifts! 100% of profits go to garden upkeep and supplies. Soon, we will be adding seeds, dried herbs, and other products!

Succulent Sale

Kids are the heart of any community - and we want to provide ours with fresh food, fun activities, and educational opportunities! We have several projects completed for youth enrichment and more are underway!

We are on a mission to create a more resilient local food system without compromising on taste and quality.

Better gardens for a better planet.

All projects, crops, new beds, and events, are designed to be part of a fiscally and environmentally sustainable garden for many years to come. 

Systems-Based Design

Long-term viability for us includes a serious commitment to sustainable practices. From our new compost system to seed-saving, we believe that food sovreignity and sustainability are inseparable. 

Sustainability

We feel that a person-first approach is key to ensuring that we serve our *whole* community and meet the diverse needs of residents in Livingston Park North. 

Human-Centered Approach

We recognize that our area is disproportionately affected by a number of health issues, from asthma to high maternal mortality rates. We address health disparities head-on, by providing fresh produce, exercise, horticultural therapy, education, and environmental regeneration!
