An action shot of volunteers helping with the NATURE lab and Collard City Growers workshop by tending to the plants and propagating them.

Experience the magic of sticks to propagate fruiting shrubs: grow our food forest with elderberries, blackberries, raspberries, grapes and cuttings you bring to experiment with!

Afterward, join us inside the Sanctuary for the Holiday Celebration!

Collard City Growers is a volunteer-run food justice project where we connect arts and culture to growing a wealth of annuals and perennials including vegetables, medicinal herbs, natural dye plants, grains, and fruit trees. We share our homegrown harvest at neighborhood events that host hundreds of community members and passersby who come in search of nutrient dense food or “the best lettuce [they’ve] ever tasted.” During off-season, we share our harvest in the form of preserved greens, sauerkraut, pickles, and hot sauce.
