We own, manage or support nearly 60 community gardens
and farms in Providence, Pawtucket & Central Falls, RI
Due to the demand for plots, many community gardens have a one- to three-year waitlist. To find out about specific properties and get on a waitlist, see below. For information about community gardens throughout Rhode Island, visit the Public Lab website.
