The Unity Garden Project was developed to educate and feed the food insecure members of our community. We strive to educate community members in-need about sustainable and fruitful practices for a successful harvest from their own gardens!

After a harvest, we host live cooking demonstrations and create easy-to-make recipes for anyone to follow.
If you have a green thumb, or a resourceful chef, this is the perfect volunteer opportunity for you!
