Roots
Learn. Grow. Harvest
Roots is a community garden for caregivers and children that focuses on the idea of companion planting. Through this method and program, they will grow their relationships both with each other and nature. It is up to the younger generations to create sustainable lifestyles for the future.

Companion Gardening
Companion gardening is the idea of planting certain vegetables next to one another in order for them to both benefit. This concept at the Roots garden carries through to the idea of gardening with a companion and being able to help, learn, and grow from one another just as the vegetables do. We believe in growing roots in your relationship with nature and with each other.
