GardenSpace: Bridging the Information Gap for BIPOC Urban Gardeners in Seattle
community engagement & outreach

knowledge organization
Urban gardening involves cultivating plants in an urban environment like a community garden. In Seattle, BIPOC urban gardeners have historically encountered an information gap that has excluded them from predominantly white gardening spaces. To address this, GardenSpace provides one of the first-ever centralized digital spaces to access resources and connections within the urban gardening community in Seattle. Through our platform, these urban gardeners can explore events, engage with organizations, and learn about diverse community gardens in the metropolitan. By facilitating their integration into the broader BIPOC urban gardening community, GardenSpace fosters inclusivity and unity within Seattle's urban gardening sphere.
