COMMUNITY GREENHOUSES

We support the need to build resilience in our food systems, to empower people to provide for themselves and their communities, and to form connections with one another and with food.

We have provided greenhouses to veterans groups, youth groups, Indigenous communities, non-profits, and community groups—for those whose aim it is to provide a service to the people around them, above the goal of turning a profit.
