Small hands can make a big difference!

School Gardens can be a wonderful way to empower children to make a positive difference for their neighborhood.

You can make an impact on hunger in your community while teaching children valuable lessons about nature, food security and their community! AmpleHarvest.org is a non-profit organization that helps to connect gardeners with food pantries in their community. We help to increase the amount of fresh produce that is donated to food pantries, nationwide. This decreases hunger while improving health for millions of Americans.
