Our Impact confirms that the simple act of planting a garden can unite neighbors in a common effort and inspire locally led solutions to challenges facing our country - from hunger to climate change. People’s Gardens enable healthy eating, connect people to agriculture, demonstrate sustainable landscaping practices, and serve as launch pads for communities to begin selling locally-produced agricultural products at farmers markets and CSAs across America.
