Growing Food, Growing Community Intergenerational Gardening Program

Gardens offer great opportunities not only to grow fresh fruits and vegetables, but also to meet your neighbors. This year, Age-Friendly DC, the DC Department of Parks and Recreation, the Office of the State Superintendent for Education, and the newly formed DC Food Policy Council are partnering in an effort to connect residents of all ages and abilities who want to garden with spaces and opportunities that need garden assistance from community gardeners that need assistance, home owners that have space to garden and school gardens that are dormant in the summer when schools out.
