come together, grow together
The community garden movement grows stronger when the people behind it know each other. Find your people here — through virtual and in-person gatherings, quarterly forums, hands-on workshops, and national conferences designed to spark real connection, shared learning, and collective momentum.
Registration is required for all events.
Most UGP programming is free and open to the public — because everyone who wants a seat at the table should have one.
