Time to Grow!

We’re growing! We’ve sprouted, so to speak, and are moving into our next phase of development. The goal of a productive community food system in our city is possible and a much needed resource in our area.

We continue to pursue the goal of supporting our neighborhoods through community gardening. Food banks have been overwhelmed by the demand for food in the community. We hope to be another source of food production providing a supply of fresh fruit and vegetables to families and as much as we can to food banks.

This is how we plan to meet those needs…

Any amount helps us achieve our goals

We rely completely on donations made to the garden. This allows us to offer free access to valuable resources to everyone in our community.

Here are three ways donations are used:

1. Garden maintenance. We wish growing was as simple as putting some seeds in the ground and watching them grow, but it isn't. From keeping plants healthy to upkeep of equipment, and staff to do it. There are a lot to care for!

2. Neighbor Aid Program. Sometimes people just need a little help. Our access to volunteers make that possible, but even donated time can't negate all expenses. Your donations will help neighbors in need at no cost to them!

3. Growing our mission. Donations help us rise to the needs of our community. Expanding our work is a valuable part of doing that.
