MISSION & HISTORY

We are an edible landscaping company serving Atlanta by helping people from all backgrounds to grow food, restore native habitats, and become environmental stewards of their communities.


A Bit of History

Community Foodscapes was initially formed as a garden consultation and landscaping company. The organization has now expanded by managing community gardens, a fruit tree nursery on Memorial Drive, and the Edible Neighborhood program.
