About Me

We are a community gardening program for Toledo and northwest Ohio. We work with citizens to create community gardens in neglected lots throughout our region (particularly in Toledo's central city). We help people set up and maintain community gardens. We also offer lots of volunteer opportunities, educational events and social functions related to gardening. 

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

gardeners (especially in the Toledo area), orchardists, environmentalists, artists, chefs, musicians, urban planners, cheesemakers, urban farmers, fermenters, beekeepers, composters, musicians, deejays, volunteers...Here we are making nesting boxes for our hens...
