Victory Gardens for Peace GardenCorps program trains teams of individuals in sustainable food systems and community organizing to support the establishment of a local food and gardening culture.

This pilot program is a 3-part course including 45 hours of hands-on training in sustainable food production, 27 hours of diet planning and design and 27 hours of agricultural leadership training. A description of the curriculum is on the reverse side.

Program participants are accepted on the grounds that they will apply what they learn and dedicate their efforts in 50 hours of community service within a 1 year period to improve access to gardening land and resources for people in Fort Bragg.

GardenCorps graduates are provided the tools to demonstrate, teach and organize community around sustainable home and community gardening. They are supported in this work by their teachers, classmates and community. The goal is a sustainable and local food system for all. This pilot will serve a further development of an international program to train GardenCorps leaders around the world.
