This April, Grounded Strategies celebrates 13 years of vacant land stewardship.

As our partner communities face so much uncertainty at this moment, the inequalities facing underserved communities are being laid bare. We know that healthy connections to the outdoors and access to openspace are more crucial than ever, affecting life outcomes such as educational attainment, household income, mental health, and physical wellness. 

The 13 Days of Grounded campaign celebrates our organization’s founding by highlighting 13 projects, tools, and resources available now to communities and residents searching for ways to get outside, relieve stress, and beautify your neighborhood.
