Cedar Rapids Community Gardens

LOCATION: Cedar Rapids, ID

AREA: N/A

CLIENT: City of Cedar Rapids

COMPLETION DATE: TBD

The City of Cedar Rapids is undertaking an exciting community-driven planning process to create a vibrant network of community gardens in 7-10 parks across the City. This will create significantly more access to plots than the 300 currently available in 3 parks developed to date. This comes in response to interest voiced by the community in expanding healthy food access efforts as the #1 community priority to support climate action locally. Leading by example, the City is committed to expanding community gardens to more City parks with a focus on walkability and access for residents who are under-resourced and under-represented.

Wheat Design Group performed the role of Landscape Architect and Landscape Designer in the completion of the Master Plan.
