Grow Your Own Groceries

For all of you that enjoy the taste of homegrown food, Grow Your Own Groceries is a backyard gardening course that teaches urban residents how to design, plant, and care for a productive vegetable garden, plot or any space available. By growing food at home individuals and families save money on groceries, eat healthier, and avoid commercial food safety scares.

Milwaukee Urban Gardens (MUG) supports efforts of community groups wishing to start or sustain neighborhood gardens by negotiating long term lease agreements with the City of Milwaukee. MUG leads the development and preservation efforts by facilitating land acquisition, resource development, and helping groups develop local leadership and beneficial collaborations.
