The mission at the Gallucci Learning Garden is to provide opportunities for the local community to learn to grow and cook fresh, nutritious fruits and vegetables in their own yards or at a community garden, meet and connect with others in the gardening community, and share this joy with others. They have workshops for children and adults, events such as film-screenings and small concerts, and strive to be a place for neighbors and Tacoma residents to connect. Stop by anytime and enjoy the space, it’s what it was made for!

Preserving the Harvest
The Center for Food Preservation Arts in Tacoma offers free canning classes as well as a Canning Library. Their Canning Equipment Library is a resource that makes available the common and unusual pieces of canning equipment that folks may not be able to afford or have no place to store particularly if they only use them once or twice a year. The canning tools are available for borrowing on a first come first serve basis for home use, or the equipment and the canning kitchen can be booked for groups or individuals to have “canning parties” or do major production canning for their homes.
