Community Gardens

With a vast number of vacant lots in our community, CDC is attempting to utilize these open spaces for growth. We currently have two community gardens which empower members of our neighborhoods to cultivate fruits and vegetables. Our hope is that these gardens would someday populate Peaches and Greens with locally grown produce, thus providing another neighborhood enterprise.

At the corner of Philadelphia and Second streets we have maintained a two acre garden for the past three years. In May of 2009, Home Depot partnered with us to build another garden at Taylor and Third streets with over 25 raised beds.

Feel free to email us if you'd like to volunteer your green thumb to one of these ventures!
