Rainbow Garden Society
We are a safe, inclusive community garden and food literacy society located in the heart of Calgary.
We welcome anyone who is willing to abide by our community code of conduct, who has an interest in gardening, and who wishes to connect with others about food, plants, and soil in a safe, inclusive, sober environment.
OUR VISION
To close the food security gap for urban Queer community members through urban gardening, programming, and safe spaces.
OUR MISSION
To develop and provide sustainable food literacy programming for the queer community in a safe, sober and inclusive environment while establishing meaningful connections within the City of Calgary.
HOW TO JOIN US IN THE GARDEN
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO GARDEN WITH US, PLEASE READ THIS:
Gardening has just wrapped up for the 2024 season. But never fear! We have programming coming up all winter long and will be back planting and growing together in the spring. If you are interested in joining the community and receiving communications to stay in the loop, please click “Join the Community” and pop us a quick email explaining who you are and why you would like to join us. We will send you the policy and registration forms to review. Once you have signed those, you may book a spot on the calendar for events for the winter!
