The fight against Food Insecurity and promoting healthy eating is becoming too real in our neighborrhoods as we approach the Fall and Winter.
Due to inclement weather, our Fall Planting Date has been moved to 10/3.2024. We now have a real narrow window to plant, with the help of Volunteers, our tender seedlings and precious seeds in the ground for a bountiful harvest before first fall.
Our Community Farm and Garden are on the East Wright Street entrance behind the Wimberly Center for Community Development. Look for the red barn and gate entrance.
If your Volunteer schedule allows, we would welcome your help.

Mission Statement
Wimberly's Roots combats food insecurity by providing fresh, locally grown produce and educational programs in nutrition, gardening, and sustainable agriculture. We empower communities to lead healthier, more sustainable lives through engagement and accessible resources.
Description
Wimberly's Roots is a nonprofit organization committed to addressing food insecurity and promoting healthier communities. We grow and distribute fresh, locally sourced produce to underserved populations while offering a variety of educational programs focused on nutrition, gardening, and sustainable agriculture. Our hands-on workshops, classes, and demonstrations teach individuals and families how to grow their own food, make nutritious meals, and adopt environmentally conscious practices.
In addition to food production and education, we engage the community through events, volunteer opportunities, and collaborations with local chefs, educators, and agricultural experts. Our demo kitchen hosts cooking classes and healthy eating initiatives, while our community garden and farm provide spaces for learning and cultivating fresh produce.
At Wimberly's Roots, we aim to empower individuals with the knowledge and resources they need to lead healthier, more sustainable lives, while fostering a strong sense of community and shared responsibility for food security.
