Introducing Our New Food Committee

Fostering Community Through Sustainable Food Practices

Watertown Community Gardens is excited to introduce our newest initiative: the Food Committee.

This committee was formed around the belief that when more of us grow and share food, our whole community becomes stronger.

The Food Committee is led by Judy Fallows, Naomi Shea, and Laura Berman, who are helping shape its direction and programming.

Growing Our Own Food

The Food Committee is dedicated to empowering community members to take an active role in growing and preparing their own food. We believe that engaging individuals in hands-on activities can cultivate a stronger sense of community and resilience.

Addressing Food Insecurity in Watertown

Food access is a community issue. The Food Committee is committed to combating food insecurity in Watertown by encouraging neighbors to share fresh produce and resources. Our goal is to create a supportive network where everyone has access to healthy, nutritious food.

Education in Sustainable Gardening

The Food Committee is also committed to educating our community about sustainable and organic growing practices. By sharing knowledge and resources, we aim to inspire more people to adopt these practices, ensuring a healthier environment and a more sustainable future for all.

Join Us

We welcome anyone who wants to:

  • Grow healthy food
  • Share produce with neighbors
  • Learn or teach sustainable practices
  • Help strengthen local food resilience
