Where we Grow for Good

  Community Roots Garden is not a victory garden but a FREEDOM garden! Free food to free the people of Brookland Park who live in a food desert, Freedom to have organic food without the high prices at every grocery store, Freedom to grow what you want to eat... we need to clear more space of the ever invasive kudzu because we are putting in a greenhouse so we can grow all year long, and plant fruit trees and berry bushes as well.

Our Mission: Empowering food insecure communities to create and maintain access to healthy food.

​

Our Vision: Accessible, equitable and affordable healthy food for those in food insecure communities

 Food Not Bombs is an all-volunteer global movement that shares free vegetarian and vegan meals as a protest against war and poverty. Our ideology is corporate and government priorities are skewed. There is no need to allow hunger to persist in the midst of abundance. Each chapter collects surplus food that would otherwise go to waste from grocery stores, bakeries, markets, and local farmers. Then we prepare community meals which are served for free to anyone who wants to eat. We do not pass judgment about food access or poverty levels

Casa Alma is a Catholic Worker community and all-volunteer non-profit located on .6 acres in a diverse neighborhood in the city of Charlottesville. We host a community house for resident volunteers and two houses of hospitality for homeless and low-income families. Our guests are typically African-American or Latina single parent families who live onsite for up to two years. Guests leverage a more stable future by paying down debt and saving funds for future housing.

Surrounding the houses, we cultivate a shared urban homestead which includes extensive gardens, a mini-orchard, berry patch, rainwater catchment, a flock of laying chickens, miniature dairy goats, and honeybees. We garden and care for backyard animals not only to provide healthy food for guest families and resident volunteers, but also to inspire people to connect to the abundance of the land.
