Our Mission
The Youth Garden Project cultivates healthy children, families, and community through educational programs and connecting people with food from seed to table.
The food we grow informs and inspires our educational practice, and also nourishes our community! Find out where the food from our 1.5 acre garden ends up.
We use the garden as a cross-disciplinary learning tool that connects kids to the environment and our local food system! Learn more about our youth programming.
Gardening not only builds soil, it also builds community! A garden nurtures many forms of connection. Learn how you can be a part of our community at the youth garden.

Upcoming Seed-to-Table Dinners & Events
Register for our 2026 Garden Dinners!
We’re so excited to be hosting two unique Garden Dinners this year with Chefs Nick Sherinian and Megan Bartley. Prepare for refreshed, memorable experiences built upon the same multi-course, seed-to-table dining experience you’ve come to love.
Our first dinner will be August 8 at the Moab Winery, and our second will be October 10 on-site at the Youth Garden. For more information on each dinner experience and to learn more about our chefs, check out this page and reserve your tickets.
Tickets are $80 for adults (all guests must be 21+ for our dinner at the Winery) and $25 for youth under 12. All proceeds support our youth and community programs!
Register for our Table Talks Workshops!
Join us this summer for our Table Talks workshop and dinner series!
We will be hosting four workshops this summer designed to foster garden-based learning and community gathering. Each workshop includes a one-hour talk and a garden-fresh, themed dinner. This year’s workshops will discuss pollinators, soil health, edible flowers, and Moab’s early orchard history!
Registration is $30 per person per workshop (excluding our FREE first workshop on July 15), and seating is limited. Check out this page for more information and to reserve your spot today!
Join us for our next
Weed N Feed!
Our next Weed N Feed of the season is Wednesday, August 5th, from 6-8 pm!
Every other Wednesday from April to October (excluding the month of July), join us for ~1.5 hours of weeding in exchange for a free, garden-fresh meal. All ages and abilities welcome!
We’re still looking for a few Guest Chefs for our Weed N Feeds this season! Check out this page for more information and to sign up if you (or your organization) are interested in preparing a delicious meal for one of these volunteer nights.
