IMPACT GreenSpace

IMPACT's Greenspace Initiative: an emergent and strategic approach towards cultivating an environmental justice framework at the ground roots level of Montgomery County, MD.

By empowering local residents with the skills, knowledge, and motivational support, our mission is to catalyze our local food network by sustaining a network of local environmentalists towards transformational growth that is afforded through the practice of ecological stewardship.

Our Initiative

We co-create, design, and maintain a variety of biodiverse Greenspace throughout Montgomery County in order to build health equity, enhance local green economy, and help foster the practice of environmental stewardship.

We Create Sustainable Greenspaces through the combination of ancestral permaculture techniques with modern technology.

We Grow Leaders by inspiring individuals to take action with others using a shared leadership approach.

We Connect Communities and Boost Economic Power through the practice of communal gardening, food-sharing, and healthy activity.
