🍓 Strawberries
🥬 Lettuce growing up vertical channels
🌼 Flowers for the pollinators
Every harvest goes to neighbors facing food insecurity. And most of the Sprout Squad hands tending it showed up as beginners too. 🙌
Experts all started as beginners.
The point is… they started. ✨

Nobody is born knowing how to grow food. 🌱
Every okra pod, every lettuce leaf, every marigold you see here started with someone who didn’t know what they were doing yet… and planted anyway. 🌼🥬
At the People’s Garden, our Sprout Squad learns by doing. You get your hands wet in water-based systems, you make mistakes, and you watch things grow. Nobody here started as an expert. 💚
