History
Pullman Community Gardens (formerly known as The Greystone Foundation) is a not-for-profit civic organization originally formed in 1988 to preserve the historic Greystone Church on College Hill in Pullman. The Romanesque style Presbyterian church was designed and built by local architect and businessman, William Swain, in 1914.
The church is currently owned by another party and has recently been remodeled as an apartment complex.
Koppel Farm began as a location promoting organic gardening and community spirit. The name was officially changed to Pullman Community Gardens in 2002.
