Crafton Community Farm

The garden is so beautiful this late spring! Come check it out with us some Saturday or Sunday morning. Volunteers are around usually from 9-12 and we'd love to show you everything we are growing!

Arugula and lettuce are doing great this year! Today we planted more greens and our first batch of green beans!

Today, we planted some mustard seed we saved from last year! We also prepared some new beds for planting! The arugula and kale look beautiful this season!

It's looking pretty garden-y. What a beautiful day, and even though you can't see them in these photos, we had a lot of volunteers today!

Coming to Crafton Sustainability Fest this Saturday? Come see us at Crafton Community Farm! There are already crops growing this early spring!

Our totals for 2025 are in! 901.15 lbs of crops harvested, and 795.75 person/hours worked! Thank you to all our volunteers and supporters who made this possible!

So grateful to the hard working volunteers who came out to prep garden beds on this pretty spring morning. Check out the giant piles of compost and wood chips, courtesy of our supportive friends at Crafton Public Works! Our November planted garlic is nice and tall, tucked in with some straw and leaves for mulch. And we already had our first harvest of 2026-american groundnut tubers!

Join us for a morning of growth and community-building at our first open gardening session of the 2026 season! Located in Crafton Park. 117 West Steuben St 15205. We will be there from 9am-12pm, come for the whole time, or drop in and out whenever you can. We will be prepping garden beds, planting some cold weather crops, and doing some light garden cleanup. Everyone is welcome, no experience necessary. We have tools and gloves to share. Please dress for the weather.

Some of the fruits of our labor in 2025. We grew luffa gourds and picked them off the vines before the first hard frost. Then volunteers dried them at home and then peeled the skin off, shook and scraped the seeds, and cut the luffa sponge/scrubber into pieces to clean skin and dishes.

Carrots, daikon radishes, and mixed green bed from garden yesterday!
