Civic Garden Center
The Civic Garden Center is a regionally recognized nonprofit model that has been teaching people how to grow food and care for the environment since our founding in 1942 during the Victory Gardens movement.
Throughout our history, the CGC has been a grassroots organization, taking cues from those in the community who desire to create positive local change through community and school gardens and environmental education and action.
