Yarducopia is an exciting organic community gardening project of Alaska Community Action on Toxics in Anchorage, Alaska. Yarducopia connects landowners, who donate yard space and tools, with people who have time to spend in a Garden.  ACAT trains the volunteers to build regenerative, organic gardens and meets with them during the growing season to problem solve any growing concerns.  The homeowner and volunteers split the produce grown, saving ten percent to be given to a charity of their choice.  It is one part Neighborhood Supported Agriculture, one part co-op, one part gardening club and two parts community garden. This project beautifies local neighborhoods, provides a new way to volunteer and be involved in the local green and food movements, and produces local, organic food and flowers to a diverse income group.

Sign up here if you are unable to participate for a full season, but would like to volunteer to help build sheet mulch garden beds with Yarducopia.
