Our work is rooted in the belief that a garden has the power to transform a neighborhood. Community gardens deliver beauty and escape while many produce healthy food in unexpected places. A garden creates a shared sense of purpose that empowers a community, creates environmental awareness, and improves public health.

Grassroots Gardens WNY operates as both an urban land trust and a facilitator of leased land, cultivating growth at more than 100 community gardens and school gardens in Buffalo, Niagara Falls, and Kenmore.
