The FCGC believes that growing community is as important as growing a garden. To this end, we host community building activities and encourage community discussions. For example, read about several past community building events below:
Community Garden Tour The Fayetteville Community Garden Coalition hosted a free tour of 5 community gardens in June 2011. The tour encouraged gardeners to exchange ideas and experiences, as well as share with the FCGC their successes and their needs.
