Renewing our region's culture of backyard gardening
Our Mission
A Garden In Every Lot aims to renew our community’s culture of backyard gardening. We help both individual community members and community organizations overcome barriers to starting a garden.
Currently, our services are for first-time gardeners only.
We accomplish this by offering garden site assessment & preparation, tilling, seeds, and plant starts, and by helping community members work with local landlords and governmental bodies.
In concert with our community partners, we help coordinate gardening-focused educational programs and
community-building events.
