Our Mission

We transform underused spaces into thriving places, creating happy, resilient & connected communities growing, preparing and sharing food together.

Our Vision

We envision every person in Ireland being able to grow and share food through garden sharing.

We imagine flourishing partnerships and friendships forming within connected communities everywhere — ones that cross the generational divide, socio-economic and cultural backgrounds — between neighbours who have called their place ‘home’ their whole lives and those who may have only recently moved in.
