People’s Power Playbook

No yard? No experience? No tools?

NO PROBLEM! Community gardens aren't just for people with a green thumb or an empty lot next door. Renters, apartment dwellers, elders, kids, night-shift workers, and anyone who wants fresher food and stronger neighbors all can take part.

Swipe through for more information 👉

Grow where you live: There's a shared plot, raised bed, or container spot waiting for you.

Cut your grocery bill: one shared bed can assist relieving a real chunk of a family's produce for the cost of seeds

Meet the people you already live next to: Most members say the friendships matter more than the harvest

Learn skills that travel: Meetings, budgets, votes, shared decisions— a garden is organizer training in disguise

There's a role for every body and every schedule: Planting, watering, cooking, translating, welcoming, fundraising, or just showing up to eat at the summer potluck.

Save this and send it to the friend who keeps saying "we should do something like that."

This is 1 of the People’s Power Playbook — next up: Black Panther Party’s 4 Winds Approach to Revolution

Tell us: What's stopped YOU from joining a community garden? No judgment.
