Get Growing KC

Get Growing KC is a two year campaign to help get good food growing in every neighborhood. We are creating a map to find out where good food is growing in the Kansas City area. Do you grow food in your backyard? On your patio? Or in a community garden in your neighborhood? Are you an Urban Farmer? Click here to put yourself on the Get Growing KC Map!

Help us realize a Kansas City where…

People garden at home, in vacant lots, and at community sites.
Urban farmers produce food to feed the community.
Youth learn where their food comes from by growing it.
Every resident has access to fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables in their neighborhood.

We offer:

Free Technical Assistance

Growing food at home
Participating in or starting a community garden
Farm business development and management
Food project planning and development

Presentations on ways to grow and access food in your neighborhood.

Workshops on home gardening, community gardening and urban farming.

Community networking to establish long-term relationships that promote fresh food and healthy eating.

Mini-grants Thank you to all who applied for Get Growing Mini Grants over the last 18 months. Unfortunately there are no more funds available, but we are pursuing funding for future grants. You will see it here first!
