Mission

The We Sow We Grow Project is dedicated to the furtherance of gardening and farming in an urban landscape through education and service. Fresh fruits and vegetables are possible to grow for all and we seek to remove the fear and reservations of growing your own food through community-powered assistance in an urban ag safe space. Through work on our urban farm, volunteers will learn how to grow their own food while identifying problems that may arise and how to troubleshoot them.
