Planting with a Purpose is a program through which we grow produce and donate the fresh vegatables and fruits to local pantries so that those down on their luck have access to proper nutrition.
We strive to combat food insecurity which is defined as
“situation when people lack secure access to sufficient amounts of safe and nutritious food for normal growth and development and an active and healthy life.”
