SLCC Community Gardens
SLCC Community Gardens are here to provide space for our students, faculty, and staff to practice sustainable gardening and empower them to grow their own fresh produce.
We believe that all people are entitled to healthy, fresh food regardless of socioeconomic status and other personal circumstances. Increasing access to this food is key to enabling people to thrive as they reach for their dreams.
We see the gardens as an opportunity to create a community around a common interest and bring people together in a relaxing and unique space.
