The Sycamore Community Garden has three basic missions.

The first is to provide residents of the Concord area, particularly new Americans and those with limited incomes, the opportunity to grow organically-farmed food on land accessible by public transportation.

The second is to increase social capital, cultural understanding, and empathy through the communal act of gardening.

The third is educational. NHTI and the SCG Board will work together, when appropriate, to benefit the gardening community, complement the College mission, and demonstrate the benefits of environmentally sound, sustainable agriculture.
