Community Gardens at UT Arlington
Community gardens offer a focal point for community involvement, and foster a sense of community ownership and stewardship. They offer educational opportunists for young generation to learn about organic gardening and the benefits of locally grown food. The organic Community Garden at UT Arlington, built in collaboration with the City of Arlington has become a public green space for families, community members, and garden enthusiasts. Members of the community can adopt one of the 78 plots in the half-acre garden. As part of the $35 annual plot use agreement gardeners donate at least half of their produce to Mission Arlington, the garden’s designated food bank program.
