WHY GARDEN?
Community gardens help purify the air, give residents a place to connect, provide pollinators with a reliable source of food, and of course, help feed members of the community. Our garden has a number of different boxes growing a number of different vegetables. There is even a children's garden!
Our Garden began in Spring 2022 and with the help of an amazing group of volunteers, was a huge success! Join that team today!
Interested in volunteering with the Garden?
volunteer@edgemontcommunityleague.com with your interests and available times!
Volunteers are integral to the success of the garden. It cannot run without your help!
No experience necessary!
Our Garden Sponsors
2022 and 2023
Access to an empty lot was generously granted to us by Brookfield Developments, who are our biggest sponsors as well. In addition to funds, they provided us with a 3-year lease on the lot for the garden. Home Depot West and Windermere donated wood for our generously-sized planter boxes. ProZone Ltd donated our garden soil.
