Dare County Community Gardens
Gardens bring communities together. Not only are community gardens a good way to get more fresh fruits and vegetables in our diets, they also allow us to be active outdoors and build a strong community. Eat Smart, Move More North Carolina: Growing Communities through Gardens
There are three established well-organized active community gardens in Dare County. Garden organizers are currently recruiting gardeners and establishing work and planting schedules for their spring gardens. Individuals interested in gardening or volunteering with the organization and management of a Community Garden can contact your neighborhood garden at Manteo, Hatteras, or Southern Shores.
