Placer Community Gardens (PCG ) is a program of Placer Food Bank designed to build grass-roots, community-oriented solutions to feeding and nourishing those in need. We connect individuals, community organizations and businesses, with local gardeners and farmers to grow, harvest and distribute fresh produce to more than 90,000 individuals suffering from hunger in Placer County.
There is no such thing as too much zucchini! Over 90,000 individuals in Placer County do not know with certainty where their next meal will come from. You can help us put more fresh food on the dinner table for those who are struggling.
There is never a shortage of work to be done in the garden! We’re always in need of volunteers to help us build garden boxes, prepare gardens for planting, and to plant or harvest crops. The food we grow and harvest helps to feed and nourish those in need.

You may recognize Jeff and Sue Bordelon from their time on the farmers market circuit. Successful growers of corn, peppers and other crops for several years, the Bordelons had a prosperous market garden and were consistently sought out by fans of their produce. In 2014, Sue decided to enroll her garden in Placer Food Bank’s Community Garden Program. Rather than selling or giving away food to friends, the Bordelons have invested over 350 volunteer hours and, since that day, have donated over 1,200 pounds of vegetables to feed the hungry. .
Sue remarked, “We live in one of the richest counties and yet 1 in 7 suffer from hunger. To be able to help, if just a little bit, has been an amazing experience and the volunteers and I love being an integral part of our community.”
