Our Mission 

Victory Gardens is dedicated to making Nederland a more resilient community through local food production and renewable energy. A local nonprofit since 2015, we take our name from the patriotic efforts of millions of Americans who grew food during World Wars I and II.  Just as our forebears rose to the challenges of their time, answering a call to action, we aspire to do the same in the face of the many ecological and economic threats posed by an uncertain future.

What We Do

-Grow a variety of vegetables and herbs at our garden farm in Nederland.
-Build local food systems by selling and donating our produce locally.
-Serve the community through education and sharing information about how to grow food at elevation. 

Our Vision

We envision a community that directs and provides vital services related to the basic necessities of food, water, energy, medicine, information, and waste management. We are committed to a grassroots initiative based on the principles of self-reliance, community, and sustainable living.  

Who We Are

Victory Garden is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in Nederland. Our Board of Directors consists of three local residents:
-John Callahan
-Michael Massa
-James McVey (Director) 

​We also depend upon a group of volunteers who assist in a variety of work. A successful local food system relies on the support and participation of the entire community.
