Welcome to the Peninsula Urban Gardens Society

We are a group of gardeners dedicated to growing organic produce in a sustainable manner in the Halifax Regional Municipality.

Our non-profit organization currently has 2 sites with a total of 40 garden plots. Our two gardening sites are located on Prescott Street in the North End of Halifax, by the water tower, and in Gorsebrook Field in the South End of Halifax.

Community gardens are a wonderful way to provide local, non-market sources of inexpensive, fresh, nutritious produce. Urban gardening allows food to become more accessible and less of a commodity.

Gardeners know what is in the food they eat.

In an era when food security and food safety issues abound, community gardens everywhere are helping to integrate people back into the food production process.


Our gardening sites are made possible with the generous and ongoing support of the Councillors for District 13 and District 11 of Halifax Regional Municipality. Many thanks!
