Ginkgo Organic Gardens is a community pantry garden in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood. They employ sustainable agricultural practices to grow heirloom varieties of fruits and vegetables. They donate their produce to organizations that serve people who struggle with poverty and illness.

Through volunteer work days, Ginkgo provides opportunities for individuals and groups to contribute to the organization’s mission of being stewards of the land while serving others with high-quality food.
