About Sustainable Applewood

Who we are

We started almost ten years ago by circulating a petition in our neighborhood to see if we could get this special designation from the city. We did! Now, 3-10 of us meet once a month to brainstorm which events and projects we want to make happen for Applewood. Everyone is welcome to join!!

Our projects

We create projects we believe will make a difference. We are known for hosting community-centric events like our free seed share, paint recycling drive, winter clothing donation drive, bike parade, bike-to-work station, and beekeeping and gardening classes.

Stober Community Garden

We are proud of our neighborhood’s community garden located at Stober Elementary. With 2026, we are now celebrating FIVE YEARS of successful growing seasons. This is for our community and our planet. Come see what all of the fuss is about!
