Grow to Share was organized with three objectives
in mind. First and foremost is to assist those in need by supplying
food pantries & shelters in western Wisconsin with healthy
food at no cost. Grow to Share gardens provide fresh produce that
adds needed nutrition and variety to the diet of their clients.
Secondly, Grow to Share strives to promote sustainable agriculture
by providing a working example of local food production that utilizes
environmentally sound practices. By showcasing sustainable methods
in a highly visible public environment, it can be demonstrated
that anyone can produce their own food with little effort or impact.
The third goal is to strengthen community relationships by providing
a place for fellowship and educational opportunities. A Grow to
Share garden offers a friendly environment where individuals from
all corners of the community can work together in a common cause.
They are places where people have the opportunity to expand upon
their personal skill set while building new relationships.
