Columbus Community Garden (CCG) provides a common space for neighbors to meet, grow food, and build community. The benefits of the garden extend to others as well: the garden provides green space and stabilizes the neighborhood by attracting and retaining responsible residents. It is particularly effective at connecting neighbors from diverse classes and cultures. With the help of City Garden Trust and the Trust for Public Land, CCG was able to purchase the property. CCG has played a significant role in stabilizing the surrounding neighborhood since it first began as a block club project in 1990.
