Empowered Spaces Community Garden Work Day

Join us for our first Community Garden Workday of the 2026 growing season!
Saturday, April 18, from 9:00 - 11:00AM!
Imagine a space where fresh food is grown by the community, for the community. Where your hands in the soil heal both the land and yourself. A garden where people come together to learn, heal, and build a more just and sustainable future.
That’s what we’re growing at Empowered Spaces Community Garden— and we invite you to be a part of it!
Located at the heart of our holistic healing center, our community-led garden is rooted in permaculture principles, perennial agriculture, environmental sustainability, and community care.
Our garden is currently made up of 35 fruit and nut trees, 6 raised garden beds, a pollination garden, a medicinal herb bed, and a tea garden.
We believe that food is medicine, that land stewardship is healing, and that everyone—regardless of income—deserves access to nutritious, high-quality food.
Through our Collaborative Food Share Program we share the harvest with individuals and families in the community who are in need of access to quality food.
At Empowered Spaces Community Garden, we aren’t just tending the soil—we’re tending to community, justice, and collective healing.
When you become a member of the Empowered Spaces Community Garden, you’re not just signing up to garden— you’re showing up in community.
Why Join the Garden Co-op?
LEARN & PRACTICE –
Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or a total beginner, you’ll gain hands-on experience in organic gardening, permaculture, and sustainable land stewardship.
COMMUNITY CARE –
Be part of a cooperative where mutual support, equity, and justice guide everything we do. Participate in community organizing and activism through locally-based partnerships and programs. It’s about community, not just crops.
CONNECT & GIVE BACK –
Through the Collaborative Food Share Program, be a part of community care and help provide nutritious, organic food to those who need it most while fostering resilience and sustainability. The vast majority of the produce will be shared with those in need, and every garden member will also take home a small basket of produce on garden workdays during harvest seasons.
How the Co-Op Works
To join the co-op:
Sign up with a self-determined sliding-scale annual membership fee. Register here.
Commit to volunteering in the garden each month (see below for details on our Collaborative Food Share Program).
In return, all members will receive a small weekly basket of fresh produce during growing seasons.
