About the Garden
The Hillcrest Community Garden is one of the largest community gardens in Michigan, and is one of the many things that make the Fulton Heights neighborhood so desirable.
As proud owners of the garden, the Fulton Heights Neighborhood Association and its Garden Committee serve as stewards for the garden’s future, administering the garden to ensure both long-time participants and eager new gardeners can participate in one of the true treasures of Grand Rapids.
