For over 30 years, Kansas City Community Gardens has helped thousands of gardeners with low-cost gardening resources in the KC metro area.
The mission of KCCG is to assist low-income households and community groups in the Kansas City metropolitan area to produce vegetables and fruit from garden plots located in backyards, vacant lots, and at community sites.
The Schoolyard Gardens program works with schools metro-wide to establish vegetable gardens on school grounds. KCCG staff support school staff and students so that they can have successful gardens, exposing students to the wonders of growing their own fruits and vegetables. Through the gardening process, we help children learn about nutrition with the hopes that they will develop healthy eating habits.
If you’re interested in getting involved, there’s a training coming up on August 5th. Check out the flyer below for more info!
Happy Volunteering!
