The mission of the community garden is to provide fresh, nutritionally-rich, and local produce to area food pantries through growing and maintaining a garden that reflects the collective contribution of members of the community in which we live.  By fostering  collaboration between community members young, old, and of different backgrounds, we together create a certain synergy that can serve as a springboard to deal with larger social concerns.  We strive to benefit and educate the most vulnerable members of our community with an eye to food security issues that affect us all.  We accomplish this in a healthy, organic way.
