About us
We are a nonprofit, volunteer-run garden on two acres of donated land in College Station.
Our mission
We make fresh, locally grown food accessible to everyone, and we use the garden to bring neighbors, students, and families together around a shared purpose.
Our story
The garden began in 2019 when a handful of neighbors turned an empty church lot into eight raised beds. Today it has 86 plots, a teaching pavilion, a pollinator meadow, and a composting program that diverts more than 20 tons of food waste each year.
Our values
Access
Sliding-scale plot fees and accessible beds mean no one is priced out.
Stewardship
Organic practices, rainwater capture, and composting keep our soil healthy.
Community
Every harvest season, one row in four goes directly to local food pantries.

No. New members are paired with a mentor gardener for their first season.
Is the garden open to visitors?
Yes, the grounds are open to the public every day from sunrise to sunset.
How is the garden funded?
