Green Corn Project is an Austin non-profit that educates folks on organic vegetable gardening. Come learn how to install an organic vegetable garden or share your knowledge by working with a team of volunteers to install a garden for an individual or organization with limited access to good, nutritious food.

We will meet at a central location off of Rosewood Ave in Austin where we'll gather our supplies, divide into teams, and drive to the garden sites. Please wear closed toed shoes and bring gardening gloves, hat, water, and sunscreen - we'll supply the tools, material, and knowledge.

Mission Statement

Our mission is to educate and assist Central Texans in building organic food gardens. Our vision is to help Central Texans grow their own nutritious, affordable food grown in ways that conserve natural resources, promote self-reliance, and strengthen communities.

Description

GCP serves its mission through direct service programs and education. Our organic food gardening program provides education, materials, and volunteer labor to build gardens for people who lack access to nutritious, affordable food. We work with families and individuals that are low-income, disabled, elderly or single caregivers, as well as schools, after-school programs, transitional housing communities and other organizations.

We also provide education about the methods and benefits of organic vegetable growing. GCP holds a number of Biointensive Gardening Skills Workshops per year that are open to the general public, and we are happy to do presentations for specific groups as well.
