How to Start and Sustain a Community Garden

Are you involved in a new community garden or looking to start one? Join us to learn what it takes to get a community garden started, and how to sustain it. This is not a gardening class — we will cover recruiting and keeping volunteers; assessing and finding resources in your neighborhood; garden management; land ownership/security; forming partnerships, and How to Get Stuff Done!  Philadelphia groups who complete the course and meet additional requirements are invited to apply for project support.

This class takes place on five Wednesday evenings: March 27, April 3, 10, 17, and 24 from 6 – 8 pm, in person in the PHS McLean Library or virtual on Zoom.  By selecting March 27, you will automatically be registered for all five sessions. No need to register for multiple dates.
