Create a garden space that influences young gardeners to grow and eat healthy food and learn about the environment through partnership with Sausalito schools.
Partner with a variety of nonprofit organizations, parks and recreation departments, schools, colleges and civic and faith-based groups, to empower people through gardening.
Share information and resources to foster a supportive climate for community gardening through garden activities and our website.
