Our Vision - Growing Community

To create an affordable garden space where people in and around the community of Leavenworth can grow food, learn about nutrition and gardening, and develop relationships with other community members.

WRI can offer financial assistance for a portion of the bed rental fees. There is a scholarship fund of donations (primarily from other gardeners) for the purpose of assisting others who cannot afford the full cost of a plot. Please fill out our Financial Access Form.
