Friends of Grand Meadow

We are Friends of Grand Meadow

In 2021, our neighborhood community noticed our city park, Grand Meadow Neighborhood Park, needed some love and attention – so we took matters into our own hands and adopted it! We’re passionate about creating a community garden, food forest, and gathering spaces for everyone to enjoy. Come join us and be a part of our exciting vision!

Our mission is to create a park that serves all in the community and provides a close connection to plants and produce.

Please fill out our survey below to give us your thoughts about the food and play spaces at Grand Meadow!
Survey is open now until the end of June. Share your voice today!
