  • Community Organic Gardening Education

    In 2023, Fertile Groundworks has educated over 1,400 volunteers in the valuable skill of organic gardening. Our volunteers learn sustainable food production techniques such as such as bio-intensive gardening, small-scale organic orchardry, soil fertility, composting and water conservation. During this same time, Fertile Groundworks has harvested over 20,000 pounds to share with our neighbors in need. Working with local community kitchens and food pantries, we operate year-round to provide a continuous stream of produce to help feed the hungry in the Tri-Valley region. We also provide education and support to local schools, corporations, and other community groups to help them create and sustainably operate their own gardens.
