Piedmont Virginia Community College - Community Garden

The Piedmont Virginia Community College Community Garden has been in existence since 2008. This student-led effort exists for many reasons, including hands-on education, student involvement, leadership and personal development. We also have community members, staff, and faculty who volunteer in the garden. Most of the produce grown is donated to feed the local hungry through The Haven, a multi-agency effort working with the homeless, the Thomas Jefferson Area food bank, and the Salvation Army, though some goes to feed our laboring students! Additionally, we also have summer camps and other groups that visit the garden. 

The PVCC Horticulture and Environmental Club at Piedmont Virginia Community College is a student led effort that, among other efforts, manages the on-campus Community Garden.
