and share resources in order to:

Expand community gardening efforts throughout the state

Increase community food security & improve access to healthy food

Strengthen community involvement and build community capacity

A generous anonymous donor has provided Barret and Eston with scholarships to the Carolina Farm Stewardship Association Sustainable Farming Conference Nov 11-13, Durham.

There are still Work Exchange options that reduce the cost of the conference. (scroll down the page below the "Beginning Farmer & Rancher Scholarship" information).

NCCGP is currently developing a new web site that will include a database for registering community gardens across North Carolina. A designated contact person for each garden will be able to sign-in and update the garden's information online. If you have already registered your garden in the current database and it has not shown up on the list of gardens please accept our apologies. Be assured though that we have your information and will make sure to contact you when the new web site and database is ready to use.
