The Trinity Community Garden is an urban community garden located on Broad Street between Vernon Street and Allen Place, started by Trinity College. Its aim is to strengthen the relationship between the college and the Hartford community. This project provides Hartford families with food security by providing them access to nutritious foods at a reasonable price and by promoting healthy practices. Throughout the summer families grew squash, tomatoes, beans and other types of produce. We are currently planning to add more raised beds to the garden to increase our growing capacity. We also plan to add more of an aesthetic appeal to garden so that it can serve as a centerpiece for the surrounding community.
If you are interested in obtaining a plot in the garden contact Trinfo Cafe at (860) 297-4238
The garden is located next to Trinfo Cafe just on the outskirts of the Trinity College campus.
