Urban Garden Atlas
Real small gardens in big cities
Small gardens. Big city energy.
Submit your gardenOur mission
Urban Garden Atlas is a place to discover and share real balcony, rooftop, patio, window, container, and sidewalk gardens from people living in dense cities.
It is for apartment growers, balcony gardeners, rooftop gardeners, people growing herbs or food in small spaces, and neighbors trying to bring more life into concrete-heavy neighborhoods.
Small gardens can add beauty, shade, food, habitat, and inspiration where possible — one real city space at a time.
Built for real city spaces
Balconies, rooftops, patios, windowsills, recycled containers, sidewalk planters, and indoor apartment gardens all belong here.
