Mission and Goals
The CFG program provides financial and resource support for many community gardens.
OUR MISSION is to support neighborhoods in creating and maintaining community gardens in which residents can grow their own food.
As the program grows, we will continue to serve community gardens in Whatcom County, by providing educational workshops, resource material kits and mini grants to community gardens. In addition, the program partners with the WSU Master Gardener Program and provide garden mentoring for local community gardens.
CFG Project goals are to help expand access to community gardens, thereby increasing self-sufficiency and local food security with nutritious fresh produce; to provide opportunities for environmental education and stewardship of land; and to help create neighborhood gathering places that are welcoming to all.
