Each year we reach 250-300 community garden groups

Each year we reach 250-300 community garden groups through invitations to and attendance at our seedling and seed distributions – our broadest form of impact and outreach. The map below shows the gardens we have reached in this way over the past 3 years.

Of these community gardens, we are able to make deeper investments in 30-40 groups through one or more of the following: significant distributions of tools and supplies, garden workdays where volunteer groups or youth interns assist with critical garden projects, or working with a garden group to find a lasting solution to a difficult problem, engaging our extensive network of partners to assist when needed.

Community Gardens Support

We are working to gather insight into needs in community gardens throughout the City, learning directly from community gardeners. Please tell us about current needs or projects at your community garden.

  • We are working to gather insight into needs in community gardens throughout the City, learning directly from community gardeners. Please tell us about current needs or projects at your community garden.

    Do you have a project that could benefit from some additional person power or other support? During the growing season, Green Guerillas partners with several volunteer groups and over 35 youth interns. If we possibly can, we will work on pairing your garden with a volunteer group or youth intern group for hands-on assistance in your community garden during 2024.

    **Please note that while we will do our best and our capacity is growing, we will only be able to commit to a limited number of projects each season.**

  • A Green Guerillas staff person will reach out to you within a week of receiving your request in order to acknowledge your request and learn any additional information.

  • No, unfortunately, we will not be able to undertake all projects submitted. We will do our best to work with as many gardens as possible, but we have a limited staff and budget capacity.

  • Some projects we may be able to work on fairly immediately – within the next 1-3 months. We may not be able to get to others for a longer period of time, even up to a year. Some projects we may not be able to assist at all, unfortunately.

Beyond this, knowing what project needs are out there helps us understand the scope of community garden needs across the city and thus build more capacity to serve more gardens in a stronger way.

  • If you completed your project through working within your garden group or through working with a different organization, let us know at info@greenguerillas.org and we will remove your project from the list.
