Nurturing Their Own Crops
WHAT YOU GROW YOU KNOW
We are hands-on with planting, growing, and harvesting, discovering the satisfaction of nurturing your own crops. Teens gain insights into basic botany and food health education, understanding the science behind plant biology and nutrition.

Community Resiliency and Sustainability
EVERYTHING WE GROW IS FOR SERVICE OF OTHERS
We explore the importance of community sustainability, discovering how hydroponic farming can contribute to a healthier, more resilient future.
Our vision is to provide a sense of pride in their history, curate a healthy eating environment, and explore opportunities in underrepresented environmental and agricultural career paths.
Our mission is to serve as an instrument for developing a positive relationship between the historical influence of Black people in agriculture and the STEM advancement to healthy independent eating; impacting youth in food insecure zones.
