What is Just Grow?

Just Grow is Just Food’s community gardening initiative, bringing people together to grow fresh produce, share skills, and build a stronger, healthier Douglas County. The program provides space, tools, and guidance for gardeners of all skill levels helping neighbors feed themselves, their families, and the wider community.

​

​​Right now, Just Grow maintains 36 community plots dedicated to growing food for Just Food’s pantry. These gardens are already producing fresh fruits and vegetables for neighbors in need, with more harvests to come before the season ends.​​

​

Just Grow is also home to the Native Edible Plant Landscape, developed in partnership with Native Lands Restoration Collaborative.​ Through hands-on gardening, food access initiatives, and educational workshops, Just Grow is planting the seeds for a more resilient, connected, and food-secure future.
