Cultivate Community • Harvest Hope • Nourish Knowledge
This garden was made possible by the Diamond Foundation. The Diamond Foundation secured a long-term lease of this land for future development and is allowing the land to be used on a temporary basis.
WHO WE ARE
The Vancouver Jewish Community Garden was established in 2020 through a collaborative effort by Vancouver Talmud Torah, Congregation Beth Israel, and Jewish Family Services. This initiative was fueled by a shared dedication to fostering innovation and promoting community well-being.
We are grateful to the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver in partnership with the Jewish Community Foundation and the Ronald S. Roadburg Foundation for their significant financial seed gifts.
WHAT WE DO
Our hope for this garden is that it enriches our community, providing a beautiful space for us to gather, learn, grow, and find inspiration. By spending time in this garden, we aim to strengthen our connections with each other and with the natural world around us.
