Community Gardening

Garden Week 2023

Garden Week, which we celebrated from Earth Day until Arbor Day is complete! We’ve installed, maintained and prepared 15 community gardens during this week and they’re ready to grow!

Generous donations from local greenhouses and seed companies have supported Garden Leader’s efforts by providing additional seedlings and starter plugs so that vegetables, flowers and trees are taking root across the city.

Last year’s results are found below and if you’d like to know more, check out our garden maps Milwaukee Grows Garden Network (arcgis.com)
