About Capital District Community Gardens
Welcome to Capital District Community Gardens (CDCG) of upstate New York. Established in 1975, CDCG is a private non-profit community service organization that has been helping residents of Albany, Rensselaer, Saratoga, and Schenectady Counties improve their neighborhoods through community gardening and urban greening programs for more than 35 years. Our mission is to nourish healthy communities by providing access to fresh food and green spaces for all.
We're dedicated to working with people to foster self-sufficiency through the rewards of gardening, helping families cut their living costs by growing food locally, transforming vacant lots into productive neighborhood garden spaces, and beautifying urban areas through landscaping and street tree programs.
