This idea is the result of observing the opportunity for community engagement and food production using Friendship Benches and existing real estate.
Educators and families can join together during the summer and get to know one another better at the school garden.
Corporate campus gardens can be utilized to welcome employees back from working from home. The gardens will help ease the transition and produce wonderful fresh food.
Every garden is an opportunity to enhance community bonds, build a Village and donate surplus crops to local food pantries.
Our Mission is to optimize school and corporate campuses for the enrichment of all communities, eliminating hunger and promoting the creation of compassionate Villages.
Initially everyone brings whatever tools are in their garage. There are no expenses except for seeds the first year. And ideally the gardens would be phone-free zones.

Initially everyone brings whatever tools are in their garage. There are no expenses except for seeds the first year. And ideally the gardens would be phone-free zones. Dirt, water, seeds and people. Bring a musical instrument if you have one, and a picnic of course. That's it. Old School fun.
There is also built in opportunity to create a mini Farmers Market with a percentage of each year's school crops. The proceeds can assist in fundraising, purchasing Benches and help students learn about business.
Further, the students can become philanthropists with part of the profits and learn about that world as well.
