Gateway Community Organic Garden
The Gateway Community Organic Garden will provides 30 individual garden spaces for use by faculty, staff, students, and the children and their families who attend the Virginia Marx Children’s Center. The garden will offer a collaborative working experience where volunteer gardeners can share heritage seeds and plants as well as their knowledge of organic gardening.
Our vision for the garden’s impact to extend beyond the cultivation of plants to the growth of a community that will nurture new social networks and an active awareness of the larger issues such as biodiversity, the relationship between growing practices and the planet’s health, and the tremendous import of protecting our food sources.
