DuPont Community Garden Awarded Grant from The Starbucks Foundation

The Starbucks Foundation, through its Neighborhood Grant program, has recognized the impact of the DuPont Community Garden in its efforts to grow healthy, nutritious food to help feed the hungry in the community.  This grant award is thanks to a nomination from a local Starbucks partner (employee) Kelsie Clark, who is also an active and enthusiastic gardener in DCG. This grant will help the garden purchase a variety of seeds, soil amendments and gardening tools for use by all the gardeners and volunteers. We thank The Starbucks Foundation for this recognition of the efforts of all in DCG.

Our Mission

The DuPont Community Garden raises healthy, organic produce for our members and the local food banks, promotes environmental responsibility, teaches principles of innovative ways to grow food and foster a sense of community between the local residents.  The garden is operated as a nonprofit [IRS 503(c)(3)] organization and run entirely by the garden members who volunteer their time and effort on land provided by the City of DuPont.
