Mission Statement

Common Ground Garden transforms our students’ relationships to food by inspiring them to eat mindfully, to make healthy and sustainable food choices, and ultimately to grow their own food through biologically-intensive, sustainable gardening practices.

Description

Our community garden is a place of hands-on learning for all ages.

Common Ground Garden offers free classes with a unique approach to sustainable living: growing soil to grow food and community. This means we start with making nutritious soil (without depleting other sources), which inevitably leads to healthy plants and healthy people. By empowering people to then teach others in their community, this becomes a powerful cycle that perpetuates itself.
