Our Mission to the Community.
To advance the wellness of the Westside through Home Food Gardens, Wellness Education, Health Advocacy and Economic Empowerment.
Empowering a sense of Community.
Historic Westside Gardens draw members who live nearby, so they provide the opportunity to meet, work beside, and even form friendships with people who might live down the street, but who you might never have encountered otherwise. Many an unlikely friendship has formed at a community garden, often across generational and cultural divides. We create an environment for learning. Participating at, or even visiting, Historic Westside Gardens provides the opportunity to learn and give back to the Community.
