Be More. Grow Home.
People and places thrive when they are visited, loved and respected. Grow Home connects dedicated neighbors, staff and advocates together to turn under-used public spaces in Baltimore City into green centers for community athletics, urban farming, enjoyment and community.
Since 2012, Grow Home staff have been helping residents clean up and become stewards of public parks and community gardens from Curtis Bay to Leakin Park, bringing adults and children outside to play and make their green spaces a wellspring for healthy lifestyles and community improvement.
The Grow Home mission is to support community-led programs that cultivate open spaces, empower resident leaders and give youth accessible opportunities for recreation and first-time employment, guided by ethics of equity and empowerment. Together, we’re engaging partners to build capacity and catalyze stronger, healthier communities.
Please join us as we Grow our Home, together.
Baltimore Builders

Launched during the pandemic, The Baltimore Builders program gives local older teens and young adults a chance at first-time employment in a supervised and supportive environment where teens learn hard and soft work skills while learning to build, clean, plant and transform area parks, green spaces and other sites.
