Growing Gardens NEW Third Greenhouse
We need your help to grow more food for donations and for use in our educational programs.
Our new, third greenhouse is a critical step toward increasing both the sustainability and equity of our food system. It will allow us to grow 8,000 more vegetable seedlings each spring — a 33% increase — which will be donated to community members living on low incomes through our food access programs. These seedlings help families grow their own fresh, nutritious food and foster long-term self-sufficiency.
Designed with climate-conscious design, by local company Ceres, the greenhouse uses high-efficiency insulation, light-transmissive glazing, and passive solar heating to support abundant, year-round production while minimizing energy use and environmental impact. By combining innovation with purpose, this new space will deepen our ability to address food insecurity, expand educational opportunities, and grow a healthier, more resilient community for years to come.
As we break ground on our new greenhouse, we’re reaching out to our community to help raise the final amount needed to bring this vision to life. Your support now will ensure we can finish this vital project—one that will nourish our community for years to come. Thank you for being part of Growing Gardens’ future.

Growing Gardens’ Income and Expenses Breakdown
I am writing on behalf of my son Joe, and I to express our sincere gratitude for the gifts given to us from Growing Gardens. I’m not sure how Growing Gardens came into our lives, but we are so lucky to have found such a compassionate & caring non-profit. As a single Mom I have never had the funds to pay in for full for Summer Camps/After School Programs/Community Classes. I reached out to Megan a few years ago regarding scholarships for Joe. I was met with a woman who never ever has judged our financial situation, who whenever possible says yes, and who has never put pressure on me to pay for services in the moment. I’m beyond words on how much this means to me! It is already a difficult place to be in, not having enough, but Growing Gardens has made it ok, and more than ok.
You’ve allowed me to provide for my son, and give him the same opportunities as other children, that is a gift which will never be forgotten. In closing, thank you to each, and everyone one of you for opening your hearts to Joe, and I. For ensuring that just because we are lacking monetarily, that our hearts are overflowing with the wonders of Growing Gardens!
