Growing for Good

Simple gardens for people who need them

The Mission

This is a small personal volunteer project for Summer 2022. I will install and provide plans for small vegetable and flower gardens to help individuals...

  • Increase food independence

  • Better understand plants and their benefits

  • Get started with a fun hobby

Gardens are installed by myself free of charge. I am based out of Monroe, Washington and only serve members of that community.
