Harvest Farm… “Growing a Healthier Suwanee”

Harvest Farm is Georgia’s largest organic community garden. The garden features 76 raised beds, which are all tended organically. Harvest Farm opened in April 2010 and is located in Suwanee’s White Street Park. A former farm, White Street Park is located in the Old Town historic district. With a mission of “Growing a Healthier Suwanee”, Harvest Farm also serves as an educational resource for the Suwanee community, offering classes and events related to gardening, organic living, sustainability, and other relevant topics. Harvest Farm is proud to support our surrounding community, donating both food and supplies to local food banks and other charitable organizations.
