Cedar Hill Community Garden at Green Mtn. UMC - Denver Urban Gardens

In 2016, GMUMC's Church and Society Committee began discussing and researching a community garden on the church’s property. Through their research, they learned of a study by the City of Lakewood to determine and recommend locations for community gardens in areas considered to be 'food deserts'. The city determined GMUMC was indeed located in/near a food desert, and at that point, the committee began planning and working in earnest with Denver Urban Gardens. 

Community gardens provide a myriad of benefits for individuals, families and communities.  GMUMC is excited to be a part of a project that adds value to our community.

Planting begun in the spring of 2020, and as of 2024 all of the 20 plots are leased.  If you'd like to sign up for a plot in 2025, contact Ali Young (alicyoung17@gmail.com) to be added to the list.  The garden wiill have 3-4 plots available in 2025.
