71st & Crandon Community Garden

Anita Johnson is organizing this fundraiser to benefit NeighborSpace.

Tax deductible

The Crandon Community Garden's mission is to cultivate relationships with the community by connecting to one another through nature. Our vision is three fold:

To be able to nurture the curiosity of the youth by providing them hands on learning sessions.
To provide a space for positive and safe social interactions.
To improve nutritional awareness and promote healthy eating habits.

All Bed Usage Contributions and standard donations are used for the betterment of the garden and to fund community activities. In 2025 we will continue with several Meet & Greets, Family Days, Cooking Demos and more! Visit our website for our Spring Calendar of events - Crandon Gardens

Bed Usage Contributions are $25 for the year and are due by April 15th, 2025. Please indicate "Crandon Garden Plot Contribution" in the comments.
