The core mission of the garden is to provide healthy food and community programming to local residents free of charge. This not only feeds people physically, but mentally and spiritually as well. Through Art workshops, Qi Gong, Yoga, cooking demos and herbal medicine we have created a space where the stressors of the community and daily life can be left at the door. We cast a light on the healing components of food, justice, equality, culture, coupled with the opportunity to improve mind and body. Kelly Street Garden aims to be an oasis of healing and community building.
KSG has hosted a diverse mix of workshops since 2016. Since 2021 we have had over 90 workshops in art, clay, yoga, Qi Gong, herbal medicine, meditation, dance and performance art.
