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.
