Opportunities to garden together

Badger Rock Community Gardens

South Side residents can apply to garden at Badger Rock Community Gardens each year. In return for the opportunity to use the land to grow their own food and share gardening knowledge and ideas, community gardeners assist in site maintenance and management through volunteer commitments.

The Gardens Network

The Gardens Network connects people in Dane County with the land, education, and resources that support community gardening. The annual Community Garden Summit fosters learning and connection among community garden members.

Capitol Demonstration Garden

Since 2010, Rooted and its partners TradeRoots and Urban Triage have managed a vegetable garden at the east corner of the Capitol Square. With this small, 350-square-foot garden, we demonstrate to visitors from across the state the beauty and diversity of food grown by Madison gardeners.
