Briggs Ave Community Garden is an agricultural education space owned by the North Carolina Agriculture Foundation at NCSU. As part of the Extension program, we teach families how to grow food using USDA Organic methods and safe, seed‑to‑table practices. 30% of all produce grown is donated to the Durham Technical Community College pantry, supporting food access for local students.
