Support Growing Gardens Through Wesley Vaughn

Growing Gardens is a Boulder nonprofit, founded in 1998, dedicated to building community through urban agriculture, food access, and hands-on education. We operate three farms in Boulder County, engaging diverse communities, including Spanish-speaking and low-income families.

Since our founding, we’ve connected over 200,000 people with their local food systems through gardening and nutrition programs. Each year, we donate fresh produce for 23,000 meals and share seeds and seedlings, enabling low-income families to grow an estimated 90,000 more meals at home.

Our youth programs reach over 6,000 children and 350 teens annually, teaching healthy eating and sustainable agriculture. Colorado donors supporting programs like our Children's Peace Garden may also be eligible for a 50% state tax credit.
