Capital District Community Gardens

	Welcome to Capital District Community Gardens
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 46 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.
