This is the ecommerce site of Community GroundWorks at Troy Gardens (formerly Friends of Troy Gardens), a 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit organization, in Madison, Wisconsin. On 26-acres of urban property, we integrate community gardens, an organic farm, and restored prairie and woodlands. (On an adjacent five acres is mixed-income green-built co-housing developed by the Madison Area Community Land Trust.) Altogether, Troy Gardens is a unique, nationally-recognized model for sustainable multi-purpose land use.

Community GroundWorks at Troy Gardens' environmental education programs include a nationally recognized leadership program for teenagers, an award-winning children’s garden and an innovative partnership with the University of Wisconsin.

Over 190 local residents care for 330 family garden plots in our Community Gardens. Volunteer Stewards restore and maintain native tall grass prairie and maple woodlands in the natural areas. Each growing season, 115 households pick up weekly bags of fresh organic vegetables from our Community Farm (CSA).
