Community Gardens In Winter

When it’s winter, community gardens are vital wildlife habitats and so much more. How do you get ready for winter? During the cold season, what happens in your community garden? Share it here, at wintergardens.greenmap.org.

Let’s chart our cool weather garden culture, mapped out across the continent together.

Use your phone and respond to this survey:  It will appear on this map! 

Gardeners can select icons for habitat, bird watching, holiday events, decorations, snow play and snow stargazing.
Cool weather is good for soil building, seed saving, bulb planting, pruning and street tree care, grant writing, planning, repairs and more.

Share your garden’s winter highlights and help change perceptions about the seasonality of community gardens.

Everyone can view the garden, year round! The composting areas are active all the time, providing soil for spring planting. There are several birds and squirrels living at Siempre Verde, too, as well as majestic hawks looking for lunch. The colorful graffiti always draws comments. People with raised beds continue to harvest hardy greens like kale, collards, etc.
