Mission Statement

Our goal is to guide you how to grow your own food in your backyard by building and cultivating a garden with edibles, native and drought-tolerant plants. At Eco Urban Gardens, we assist with the design of your garden and teach the importance of growing native edible plants. It is our mission to be mindful of the environment and grow food locally that is seasonal and sustainable.

Description

Farm to School is one of our most important programs to serving the community. We believe that each child deserves to know how to grow their own food to prepare a wholesome meal. We educate school children in organic farming and assist with cultivating their edible plants. Students learn the joy of taking care of their plants, while learning valuable lessons about sustainability and caring for their environment. The lesson plan includes how to grow organic produce, promote local and sustainable agriculture, teach organic farming and support a lifestyle of healthy eating and active living.
