What is the Southside Community Garden?

The Southside Community Garden is a network of home gardeners, partners, and organizers who share a passion and commitment for growing vegetables, learning sustainability, and promoting justice through food.

Through community support and solidarity, garden materials are provided at no cost to home gardeners in the 76104 zip code of Fort Worth, TX. Home gardeners are the primary caretaker of their garden, and keep the food they grow. Partners donate their time and gardening expertise throughout the growing season to support home gardeners in the learning process.

Mission and Mindset:

  • We focus on restoring the relationship between food consumption and food growing.
  • “Teach to fish” philosophy: We focus on the learning process, with each household gardening from seedling to whole tomato.
  • Access to healthy food is a right; knowing how to grow food is one path.
  • Racism directly impacts the health and diet of Black and brown people worldwide; food autonomy is a vital part of justice.
