City Blossoms Harvest Campaign

Thank you for supporting our 2025 Harvest Campaign! Thanks to our incredible community, we surpassed our goal of $60,000. Each year, your end-of-year gifts help us meet the growing demand for garden-based learning across DC–at no cost to our partners. This year, your support will bolster our efforts to bring four new schools off our waitlist and keep us on track toward our five-year vision of creating 20 new gardens by 2028!

At City Blossoms, gardens are powerful drivers of holistic wellness. They support mental health, encourage physical activity, foster social and cultural connection, expand access to healthy food, cultivate leadership, and create safe, joyful spaces for children and youth, all key social determinants of health that affect lifelong well-being. Through our Pathways Model of age-specific garden-based programs, children and youth experience continuous opportunities to connect with nature and grow their own leadership throughout the stages of their development. By cultivating accessible green spaces where children and youth connect with nature and each other, we’re nurturing the next generation of environmental stewards and community advocates.

These green spaces are an investment in youth, both today and through the rest of their lives. Didn’t get a chance to donate during the campaign? There is still time! Every contribution, no matter the amount, makes a difference.
