Mission
Our purpose is to create a vibrant, inclusive interfaith network,
growing food for the hungry and building community through sustainable gardening,
while embracing all people equally, nurturing the Earth,
and attending to how food can promote health and wellbeing.

Who We Are
Since 2009 when Grace Garden began on a weedy backlot of Davis United Methodist Church, it has been evolving into a vibrant inclusive community network. We encounter many blessings as we enjoy working outdoors together to feed the food insecure. We give thanks to our Creator and acknowledge this ancestral land of the Patwin Wintun people. Like them, we are called to care for the Earth.
We grow fresh organic vegetables and fruit primarily for Davis Community Meals and Housing and Grace in Action. When the harvest is very plentiful, produce is available to affordable housing communities, the Pantry at UC Davis, and the Davis Night Market in the summer.
Our shared belief is to welcome and care for the stranger. We embrace all people equally and with compassion. We have 20 beds and 18 fruit trees on the 5/8 acre community garden. If anyone without land wishes to grow vegetables for their family in order to achieve self-sufficiency, we try to provide them space. For those who come hungry and work, we can send them home with what we grow in bags.
