Father English Community Garden

The newest project undertaken by CGAPC is perhaps its most ambitious project to date.

Father English Community Garden in Paterson will provide fresh vegetables to

hundreds of food-insecure people supported by Father English Pantry.

When CGAPC first undertook this project, the entire garden was overrun by weeds, 3

feet or taller, as it had not been worked for the last several years due to a lack of

volunteers.

Our team of volunteers have been working tirelessly to clean out the weeds, repair

some of the twenty-three (23) raised beds, improve the soil and prepare the entire

garden for planting in May.

The plan is to grow vegetables and herbs as well as create a small pollinator garden for

educational purposes.

This project is a collaboration with City Green Inc. part of Passaic County's Dig In!

initiative.
