Gardens & Greenspaces

The Old North St. Louis neighborhood has a number of gardens that neighbors have planted and cared for across many years. These gardens grow food, support biodiversity, provide important spaces to help connect neighbors with nature, and help us build community. Below are some of our neighbor-supported greenspaces.

Our largest community garden supports the North City Farmer's Market and serves as a Seed St. Louis Hub Garden.
