Flame Partners from schools, health, businesses, and community worked in alignment to build the garden as a site to grow, learn, and sell food. The youth leaders created a mission for themselves to use plants in the service of others at the garden.

Vision The Giving Garden is working to become a social enterprise that uses market forces to create a healthier food environment.
