The annual Victory Garden Blitz increases food security, builds community, and improves nutrition and health by providing raised garden beds at low cost primarily to low-income households. The event relies on about 90 volunteers who come together to build the beds, deliver them, and fill them with a mixture of compost and soil designed specifically for raised beds.

 

The Victory Garden Blitz  provides raised beds, soil, seeds and starts, and ongoing education that helps develop a community of gardeners for sharing and support. The Blitz provides beds to people regardless of their socio-economic status and Sustainable Berea conducts the fundraising to pay for discounted beds. It is only through the generosity of so many people that we can continue to have this program that is devoted to food justice and teaching people about urban agriculture.

The 9th annual Blitz is scheduled for April 14-16, 2023. Volunteer or order your beds online or email
