About Us
Our Mission
The mission of the GNG is to encourage, support, and promote a relationship between individuals, families and the earth through gardening, education and events.
There are approximately 30 private plots, where members can grow food for themselves and their families, and more than fifteen communal plots which are tended to and shared by all members.
Our Members
Our garden is open to the residents of Ferndale, Michigan, and neighboring communities.
Our Garden
The GNG is an organic garden that generally follows the USDA organic rules.
Currently there are several areas set aside for garden members to care for and harvest communally. Members tend crops such as lettuce, peas, zucchini, tomatoes, strawberries, raspberries, and a variety of herbs. The food grown in the communal plots is available to all members, and may also be donated to the public.
We also have communal areas for perennial flowers, and a pollinator garden at the front.
