About the Organization
To get at the root of hunger we build organic vegetable gardens in backyards, front yards, side yards and even balconies. We support limited-income households for three years with seeds, plants, classes, mentors and more. Our Lettuce Grow program brings garden education to inmates in correctional facilities and our Youth Grow after-school garden clubs grow the next generation of veggie eaters. Let’s increase fresh food access in Portland, join us.
