We need volunteers to help with indoor & outdoor spring and summer planning and planting. Feel free to call to let me know you're headed to the garden any days of the week. We are looking for volunteers for March 2025-September 2025. Also, we will be doing fruit and vegetable giveaways periodically. You could help with giveaways and you could help with planting seeds and plants. We try to provide free vegetables to give back to our volunteers as well. It's going to be a great 2025, let's enjoy it! Thank you in Advance!

Mission Statement
Global One Urban Farming is a 501(c)3 charitable organization that produces organic vegetables and distributes them free to seniors, veterans and low-income families to help raise health levels. Our organization takes unused land and converts it into sustainable organic community vegetable gardens.
Description
We started in 2010 when a husband Anthony Nealy found out how his wife(thats me)loved homegrown tomatoes. We asked our landlord if we could put in a garden. When they said yes, we put a garden in clear up the back and side of the home. Our garden extended to our elderly neighbor next door and then across the street put in a garden too. We bought the home down the street which is where we currently reside. We have built a greenhouse where we currently are growing arugula, mustard greens and butter lettuce. Now our organization owns an acre of land where we produce thousands of pounds of vegetables that we distribute free to the public to help raise health levels.
