A little about the GreenThe Columbia Heights Green is a community-run farm located in northwest Washington, DC. We are one of many community gardens supported by Washington Parks & People. The lot was purchased in 2010 for $1 after Washington Parks & People worked tirelessly to remove the numerous liens on the property. Once a junk-yard, the Green now serves as a model of community agriculture and greening for all of DC and beyond.

A little about Washington Parks & PeopleThe Columbia Heights Green is one of many green spaces in DC supported by Washington Parks & People. Since their beginnings in 1990, Washington Parks & People has been transforming forgotten locations into living green places that serve their communities. Although their scope is geographically small - in some cases block by block - Washington Parks & People works across DC to address injustice and empower local residents to transform their public spaces.
