Who We Are: 

We are a collective of growers—gardeners, farmers, and learners who are dedicated to improving communities by teaching self-sufficiency through agriculture.

What we do: 

  • We fight food insecurity by planting community gardens in areas that do not have easy access to fresh produce, known as food deserts.

  • We introduce educational programming on gardening, farming, and other aspects of agriculture, such as soil health, innovative growing methods, and integrated pest management. 

  • We have monthly meetups to support community events and programs that promote healthier communities through all aspects of life-mind, body, and soul.
