From Pots to Plots
Small spaces can hold big possibilities. A few herbs on a windowsill, tomatoes on a patio, or greens in a pot can stretch a budget and add something nutritious and convenient to each meal. For those without yard space - balconies, porches, and sunny indoor spots work, too. Community gardens are another great option - local neighborhoods, schools, and parks may have existing shared spaces where people can grow produce and connect with others.
Nourishing the Neighborhood
Donation stations at farmers markets make it easy for shoppers and growers to share fresh produce with neighbors in need. Many markets and local organizations also host programs that connect surplus fruits and vegetables to food pantries and community sites, strengthening access for everyone.
