For 15 years, Washington Parks & People has been growing the Columbia Heights Green as a place of community resilience, learning, art, and food for those most in need. Once a rubble-strewn vacant lot, the Green is now an inspiring year-round model of all that the land can mean for people and nature. This magic place has been cultivated for many years with love and dedication by Parks & People, doz

ens of our community partners, and hundreds of diverse volunteers. Soon to be re-dedicated with a Nature Sacred sanctuary, the site also features year-round agriculture and food forest, native perennials and pollinators, stage, pavilion, fire circle, healing and herb gardens, bee hive, restful green space, and a wonderful and very happy bird population. The little farm shed also serves as a sunlight and rainwater collector for the off-the grid site. The Green serves as a pesticide-free community farm, a job-training site for Parks & People's DC Green Corps, an outdoor classroom and field trip destination for area schools and youth groups, an arts and performance space, and a place of respite, reflection, and healing for all. Volunteers and partners are encouraged to contact Parks & People (www.washingtonparks.nett) about helping the Green serve those most in need.

From vacant lot to garden plots to unbeatable community spot

The Green is a community-run farm located in the Columbia Heights neighborhood of Washington, DC.

Once a vacant lot filled with tires and lead, the land we now cultivate was purchased in 2010 for $1 by Washington Parks & People. You can watch our transformation here!

We’ve grown from a junk-yard to a set of individual garden plots to a collectively run urban farm. Ten years on from its first planting, Columbia Heights Green now serves as a model of community agriculture and greening for all of DC and beyond!

Come check us out on Saturdays 10am-2pm. Kids and pets are welcome. You’ll go home with fresh produce and a lot of new friends!
