Winterfield Community Garden

Winterfield Community Garden Our garden is a partnership with the community surrounding the Winterfield Neighborhood and the children of Winterfield Elementary.

Affiliated with Mecklenburg County's Park and Recreation Department, Winterfield Community Garden features 28 10’x10’ rental plots
Students at neighboring Winterfield Elementary have 18 2’x10’ plots that they use for learning about gardening and how to prepare the veggies they grow. The "Garden Buds" meet once a week to work in their plots and harvest their crops. We have a group of volunteers and

parents that come help with their plots as well. The garden is a great way to stay connected to the community and meet new people. We always welcome a friendly face!
