Who We Are
What We Do
Located between one of the most vulnerable census tracts and one of the most prosperous business districts in Durham, the Geer Street Learning Garden is a flourishing urban green space. The garden has twelve vegetable beds, community garden beds, fruit trees, an outdoor kitchen, a small greenhouse, a vermicompost system, a perennial rain garden, a pollinator garden and areas for community gatherings...all on only a quarter-acre lot! Conveniently located in Durham’s urban food corridor, the garden neighbors include Reinvestment Partners, Farmer Foodshare, and an urban demonstration apiary managed by Bee Downtown. The heart of the Geer Street Learning Garden is the countless community partnerships we have built in Durham. To learn more about Geer Street Learning Garden, click here.
