Harvest Gwinnett
Launched in 2019 to connect community members through hands-on environmental education, plant fresh produce to improve resident food access, and nurture engagement opportunities to improve health outcomes. Harvest Gwinnett works alongside community partners to close the meal gap by implementing community gardens, nutrition education, food distributions, and more in response to Gwinnett's growing need for access to fresh foods.
Live Healthy Gwinnett maintains and operates Harvest Gwinnett Community Gardens in Dacula, Lawrenceville, Snellville, Sugar Hill, Lilburn, Suwanee, Loganville, Grayson and Norcross. Each garden has leasable 4'x8' plots that residents can apply to rent and maintain annually. Community share rows at each garden are planted, maintained, and harvested to fight food insecurity as all produce is donated locally to residents in partnership with health and human services, cooperative ministries, housing authorities, and more.
To learn more, apply for a plot, volunteer, or attend a garden program, visit LiveHealthyGwinnett.com or contact HarvestGwinnett@GwinnettCounty.com.
