Guns to Gardens helps Granite Staters remove unwanted fi****ms from their homes, without putting them back on the market. Instead guns are turned into something beautiful, such as works of art or jewelry. Guns to Gardens is organized by GunSense NH, a project of Granite State Progress and Engage New Hampshire, the NH Council of Churches, Kent Street Coalition, the Greater Concord Interfaith Council, the NH Conference of United Church of Christ, and other members of the NH Gun Violence Prevention Coalition, with generous support by the NH Charitable Foundation Gilly Fund.

What a beautiful day for NH Guns to Gardens, turning swords to ploughs. Thank you to all of our wonderful supporters and partners!

Our work together means more Granite Staters can live in homes without unwanted fi****ms. Today we collected another 17 unwanted fi****ms, a mix of pistols, shotguns, and rifles — including an AR-15. Together, we’ve helped Granite Staters remove nearly 50 guns from homes!
