From the Ground Up is our community garden space that grows food to help build food sovereignty in the community of North Tulsa.
In support of THD’s mission, we built a community garden at our North Regional Health & Wellness Center location to grow fresh vegetables and create more access to fresh food. This is an important resource to help our community attain their health goals. We are committed to sharing with our communities and want to support you in making healthy food choices.
Our goal is to share the harvest with our neighbors and communities in North Tulsa. Our Community Garden Specialist cultivates many food crops to offer a variety in the harvest. We can offer vegetables, fruits and herbs. Bring a bag, come visit the garden and simply ask. Sign up here if you would like a harvest.
Community members are invited to get involved and volunteer in our From the Ground Up garden. Volunteer Fridays open up in March and continue through the growing season. Volunteer work will include a variety of garden tasks, including harvests. No experience is needed, but all minors will need to be accompanied by a guardian. Please dress for the weather and come learn how to garden.

The series consists of four one-hour sessions held on the third Thursday of each month from February through May.
