Juntos en el Jardín

This community garden is a joint effort between Arcoíris Cultural and The Grow Collective and is centered around supporting our Latinx and Mesoamerican Indigenous community members who don't have access to their own growing spaces.  Due to construction, we left our three season home at Lincoln County Fairgrounds in September of 2023.  We installed garden beds at the Newport Public Library in the fall of 2024. The garden is currently full with a waitlist. To be added to the wait list please contact us!

After a few seasons we began noticing gardeners selling bumper crops of ayote negro and chilacyote. Our friends at Euchre Creek Farm were kind enough to lend us space to trial a larger farm effort in Siletz during the 2024 growing season. We continue to hear families ask for more space to grow that doesn't require such a commute. We are actively fundraising to secure a plot of land in order to offer communal farm space. A very sincere thank you to everyone who has donated so far. Stay tuned for updates!
