Gardens - West Ward Community Initiative

Easton’s six community gardens were adopted by the Greater Easton Development Partnership in 2018. Our gardeners help foster a ‘greener’, thriving City. Join us for cooking and gardening workshops, potlucks, events, and volunteer nights! You’ll find us on 10th, 5th, Lynn, & Washington Streets and at Lower Hackett park.

We are hosting our first three small & socially-distanced volunteer nights of 2020. Please sign up at the links below!
