The mission of the Coppell Community Garden is to grow local produce to donate to those in need. Over the years, the gardens have experienced minor theft of produce and plants. Unfortunately, this activity has intensified within the last several months with the unauthorized removal of large quantities of plants and produce. Volunteer gardeners work diligently to donate thousands of pounds of produce year-round to the Metrocrest Services Food Pantry.

Metrocrest Services offers assistance and aid to families, individuals, and seniors in times of need. For more information on how to utilize the resources provided at Metrocrest Services, including the Food Pantry, please call 972-446-2100, or visit www.metrocrestservices.org.

Please help spread the mission of the Garden so that we, as a community, can stop garden theft and continue to provide fresh produce for those in need.
