ABOUT GARDOPIA

Gardopia Gardens is a 501(c)3 nonprofit agency. The organization sprouted in 2015 to address health disparities in a high-crime corridor on the near-Eastside of San Antonio. 

 

The mission of Gardopia Gardens is to grow healthy communities through garden-based learning. We envision a sustainable society, empowered, and educated to lead healthy lifestyles through gardening.

 

Gardopia Gardens has proudly serviced the community for 8 years, promoting health and environmental stewardship by implementing garden-based learning programming in schools, businesses, and community organizations – offering tools, materials, and best practices to ensure their gardens’ sustainability. Gardopia Gardens provides five programs: Garden-Based Learning, Build-A-Garden & Optimization, Garden Volunteer, Garden Media, and Farmers’ Market. These programmatic efforts strategically align with ten of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

​

Gardopia Gardens implemented crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED) as a methodology to reduce crime around an abandoned lot. This became San Antonio Eastside's first "gardopia," or garden utopia, where neighbors grow their own food and transform their community.
