Friends of the Community Gardens

Friends of the Community Gardens supports Brown County's community garden program, which was developed in 1996 to increase food security in the region. The program has grown to 13 community gardens across more than five acres, with over 380 individual plots serving 250+ gardeners annually. Gardens are supported in partnership with Extension Brown County, the City of Green Bay, and local volunteers. The Friends organization raises funds and volunteer support to maintain and expand access to affordable, nutritious, and culturally appropriate food for Brown County residents. Held as a component fund at the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation.
