Welcome
to Capital District Community Gardens (CDCG)
of upstate New York. Established in 1975, CDCG is a private non-profit
community service organization that has been helping residents of
Albany, Rensselaer, and Schenectady Counties improve their
neighborhoods through community gardening, healthy food access and
urban greening programs for more than 30 years.
We’re
dedicated to working with people to foster self-sufficiency through
the rewards of gardening. We help families cut their living
costs by growing food locally and improving access to fresh fruits
and vegetables in underserved areas. We transform vacant
lots into productive neighborhood garden spaces and beautify urban
areas through landscaping and street tree programs.
CDCG
manages 47 cooperative neighborhood food gardens in Albany, Cohoes, Latham,
North Greenbush, Rensselaer, Schenectady, and Troy, in New York’s
Capital Region. Capital District Community Gardens organizes annual
street tree plantings for the cities of Troy, Cohoes, Green Island,
and Rensselaer enhancing our region's cities. We operate the
Veggie Mobile - a mobile produce market that makes fresh produce more
affordable and accessible for low income, inner city residents in our
region.
