Community Gardening

As of March 31, 2025, the Nourish Project is no longer operational. Information contained in this website is for archival purposes only, to document the incredible work of the Nourish Project and inspire other community-based food advocacy initiatives.

Community gardens are about more than just growing food. By increasing the number of local community gardeners and available garden space, families and individuals are able to grow fresh, healthy produce for very little money, green previously underused areas, donate to local food security programs, get to know and interact with their neighbours, and work together to enhance the communities they live in.
