Gardens - Connections Church

Welcome to our Community Gardens!

Connections Church provides a unique opportunity for the Highlands Ranch community with our On Campus Community Garden Ministry.

The Community Gardens consist of raised bed boxes, each 4’ by 8’, with its own irrigation drip system. They contain all organic soil and are the perfect place to grow produce with full sun all day long.

Questions? Please email gardens@myconnections.church for more information.

Farm to Table Project

The Farm to Table Project is an extension of the Community Gardens where we keep a few garden plots set aside for growing food to give back to our community. Volunteers are always welcome for those who would like to garden but not have the commitment of an individual box.

Willing to help out? Email gardens@myconnections.church to:

- - Join the Farm to Table team, either with tending to the boxes throughout the week or taking a turn or 2 on Sundays, mid July – Mid September, to distribute produce to our church attenders.
  - Help plan the Kickoff, or one of our other events, like the Chef Challenge.
  - Help in the weekly communication to gardeners via email.
