At Maxwell Street Community Garden, our projects bring together nature, creativity, and community care. From nurturing buzzing pollinators like bees and butterflies to celebrating our collective identity through vibrant murals, each project reflects our mission to grow more than just food — we grow connection, knowledge, and beauty in the heart of the city.

Our Events

From movie nights and maker markets to peace circles and workshops, our events are all about bringing people together. We celebrate creativity, share good food, and build a stronger, more connected community with every gathering.
