Our Initiatives

Spring Workshops

Spring came early to the region and we jumped in with free workshops and seed donations to build a strong network of neighbors. Our inaugural workshop was at My Neighbor's Place; which will be one of our 2023 "food forest" sites!

Check out our workshop page for details on upcoming events.

Native Plant Grove

The seeds have been sown and we have our hopes set on a field of sprouts in the coming weeks. These locally collected seeds spent the winter in the cold dark and with some TLC will grow into gifts for our community; sustaining our ecology and our health. Stay tuned for updates!

Story Walk

We sought a way to engage with students and teachers in the elementary school; supporting their efforts to bring students outside and into the garden. This story walk provides a guided tour of the school campus while giving students an opportunity to practice their literacy skills.
