About
We work with thousands of neighbors throughout Austin to galvanize communities around turning underutilized private and public space into productive gardens and farms, educational space, and activity centers. Our projects strengthen and beautify our communities while reducing the impact of landscaping and agriculture.
In addition to participating in our community and educational projects, you can also head over to www.urbanpatchwork.com to hire personal gardeners, landscapers, and consultants for your residential or commercial projects.

Rain gardens, trees, and cisterns add financial and ecological value to landscapes, help with drainage issues, and conserve water.
The rebates and discounts offered through the pilot program may cover some or most of the cost of installing rain gardens and cisterns on a property. Other incentives like free site assessments, contractor connection, and assistance with the rebate process help make the program easier for participants. Some property owners have saved up to 70-90% of the total cost for their system!
Urban Patchwork will help streamline the design, installation, and payment processes for program participants.[/tm_textblock][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner h_text_align=”left” h_text_align_mobile=”left-on-mobile” v_align=”v-align-middle” width=”1/2″][tm_textblock textarea_html_bkg_color=”#ffffff”]
