Why give?

A garden provides a learning environment for gardening newcomers and seasoned growers alike. Planting seeds yields more than food. Gardens promote physical activity, healthy eating and community relationships.

As community gardens have sprouted up around the country, crime statistics have fallen nearby. Why? Gardens beautify the area, increasing property values and instilling a renewed sense of community pride among garden members.

Monthly or recurring giving is a convenient way to incorporate philanthropy into any budget. Your consistent giving means we can count on your support and dedicate more time to working on our mission!
