Common Grounds Community Garden

Welcome to Common Grounds Community Garden!

We are creating a dynamic biodiverse ecosystem.

A space to create, connect, and collaborate. A place to restore community and cultivate joy. 

Utilizing useful and multifunctional plants and incorporating native plants in the design. 

Using Permaculture Design, Food Forest and Regenerative practices. 

Focusing on increasing soil fertility as the foundation. 

Reducing food waste and increasing food access. 

Observing and Learning. Creating ecological niches.

“The planet does not need more ‘successful’ people. But it does desperately need more peacemakers, healers, restorers, storytellers, and lovers of every shape and form. It needs people who live well in their places. It needs people of moral courage willing to join the fight to make the world habitable and humane. And these needs have little to do with success as our culture has defined it.” ~David Orr
