Coppell Community Garden Organization

Welcome,
Vision: We facilitate a community where people are engaged in sustainable living practices which positively affect global change.

Mission: The Coppell Community Garden, a nonprofit organization, provides community gardens, a farmers market, and environmental education. Dedicated volunteers cultivate a healthy community by growing and donating organic produce to those in need, providing a market for locally grown food, and teaching sustainable practices.

Fresh from the Gardens:

Open every Saturday at 8am until sellout. Follow the Twitters from the Coppell Farmers Market at http://twitter.com/CoppellFMarket
