GRuB Garden Project offered at GRuB (Garden-Raised Bounty)

Also offering online programs on gardening, herbal medicines and more. Connects low-income people to the resources and support then need to grow fresh food. Works alongside volunteers and new gardeners to construct dozens of backyard and community gardens each year.

Programs that provide plots of land on which groups of people living in a neighborhood can grow fruits, vegetables, herbs and flowers. Community gardens provide access to fresh produce and plants; may be located in parks, schools, hospital grounds or other open areas; and may be nurtured communally and the bounty shared, have individual plots for personal use, or be dedicated to "urban agriculture" where produce is grown for a market. Some have raised beds that are accessible to people with disabilities. The gardens provide an opportunity for participants to savor the freshness, flavor and wholesomeness of home-grown produce; save money on their food bills; grow traditional foods not available in the supermarket; or simply get some exercise and enjoy the benefits of being outdoors. They also support a community's food security, contribute to the preservation of open space, strengthen community bonds, provide a sense of connection to the environment and offer opportunities for community education.

Community Gardening

Programs that provide information, technical assistance and support for individuals who want to grow their own produce in a home garden setting. Services may include consultation regarding planting times, soil care and preparation, produce selection and pest control; provision of materials such as seed, fertilizer, potting soil, sod, manure, composting worms and other gardening supplies; and information and guidance regarding harvesting.

Home Gardening Assistance/Supplies

Programs that accept indoor or outdoor plants, seed, sod, soil, gravel, stones, fertilizer, outdoor lighting, planters or other materials that can be used for gardening or landscaping purposes. Materials may be kept for use in their own program, donated to other community-based organizations for their own use or for distribution to the people they serve, or sold to raise money for agency programs.
