Connecting people with their parks

Community Gardening

Community garden initiatives are opening up opportunities to grow what we eat as a community.

A community gardening initiative is under way that would allow us to help:

  • Communities set up gardens in their neighborhoods.
  • Develop an urban farm site in Charleston's Upper Peninsula to foster the creation of family/community garden plots, a garden community meeting space and horticultural evaluation sites for floral and vegetable crops.
  • Teach education classes with a focus of urban gardening/horticulture.

Learn about community gardening activity in specific parks in the Active Parks section on this page.
