PPatch Community Gardens Food Bank in Garden Supplies Directory

    

he Department of Neighborhoods’ PPatch Program, in conjunction with the notforprofit PPatch Trust, provides organic community garden space for residents of 70 Seattle neighborhoods. The community based program areas of the PPatch Program are community gardening, market gardening, youth gardening, and community food security in the City of Seattle. These programs serve all citizens of Seattle with an emphasis on lowincome and immigrant populations and youth. Our community gardens offer 2500 plots serve more than 6000 urban gardeners on 23 acres of land. PPatch community gardeners show their concern for the value of fresh organic vegetables by supplying 7 to 10 tons of produce to Seattle food banks each year. Supporting a strong environmental ethic, the PPatch Program allows organic gardening only and since all our gardens are maintained by community members, we have an 8 hour annual volunteer requirement in our allotment gardens.
