About Us
Our Mission
At Riverdale Community Salad Bowl Garden, we aim to grow both our community, and our green garden each and every day. Riverdale Community Salad Bowl Garden was founded by Riverdale Community. Since then, we’ve managed to gain widespread public support for our Community Garden. We encourage community members of all ages to join us as volunteers. We hope you will join us in one of our gardens to learn how to grow your own healthy and sustainable greens.
