Our church plant, The Table Community Church, in Denver, CO, is being birthed out of gardens in the neighborhood. We're not the traditional community garden model but rather we do the gardening in the community. We maintain 25 different gardens that are all located in our friends' and neighbors' yards. Through the relationships formed with these garden hosts, we encourage them to take greater ownership in the gardening process from bed prep to harvest and delivery of the food. All the food we grow we give away either to local community partners (like food banks) or to individuals in our neighborhood. There's no cost to participate but we do accept donations.
