The EGP has three main activities on the North Shore; Growing Gardens, Sharing Backyard Bounty, and building Strong Roots. The Edible Garden Project actively increases land-use for food production in the North Shore by seeking-out unused garden space both on private and public property. The EGP also encourages people who grow gardens to plant an extra row for donation. The fresh local produce that is produced is then distributed to organizations, like the Harvest Project, who serve community members who require it the most. The EGP also strives to create a community network around the environmental and nutritional importance of growing, harvesting, and sharing fresh local food.
