GRACE Project

We work with food banks, community gardens and urban gardeners providing technical assistance to help them conserve natural resources, keep our water clean and grow more food. At the GRACE Garden we grow vegetables in our 96x30' high tunnel and outside garden year round for the Central Kitsap Food Bank.

In 2018 the garden provided over 12,000 pounds of fresh vegetables for the Central Kitsap Foodbank. Partnering with the Mission Creek Corrections Center for Women (MCCCW) in Belfair the GRACE Garden also provides and restorative justice opportunities for their community service work crew.

Give the GRACE Garden Project at Kitsap Conservation District a call! We provide technical assistance for urban agriculture and home gardeners at no charge. If you have questions about soil quality, drip irrigation, plant diseases, fertilizing, or avoiding run-off we can help!

Harvest Against Hunger and Washington State Department of Agriculture’s Farm to Food Pantry (F2FP) Initiative connects farmers to local food pantries making Washington’s communities healthier and Kitsap County farms more successful. As a recipient of WSDA F2FP funding, Kitsap Conservation District contracts with local farms to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables for delivery to food pantries. With community support we look forward to amplifying local efforts to increase access to fresh produce through projects like the GRACE Garden while supporting Kitsap’s farms.
