About

DeKalb County Community Gardens (DCCG) is a local non-profit organization that takes an innovative approach to ending hunger and food insecurity in DeKalb County. DCCG addresses the common challenge of reliably accessing fresh, local, and nutritious food by providing, at no cost, access to fresh vegetables and non-perishable foods for all who may be in need. In addition, DCCG’s community gardens and experiential education programs empower residents to control their food systems by growing their own produce and sharing with their community. Since launching in 2012, DCCG has provided over 1.5 million pounds of food to residents in DeKalb County.
