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.
