Check out this story about farming in Detroit. Yes, the city. You may have heard and/or read about the problems in Detroit - and they are real - but this takes an interesting turn on gardens and agriculture in an urban setting. They want to use gardens to change lives.
Wheat Ridge knows about how important it is to change lives... and Wheat Ridge has a project in Detroit. Not growing food, but helping to grow strong children.
And Wheat Ridge also has projects with gardens as an important element in Everett, WA and one in Rwanda and in Napa, CA and Glen Ellyn, IL and DeKalb, IL .
They also have an excellent project for school chapels, Sunday School offerings, VBS offerings, small group Bible Study group projects, etc called Giving Gardens. The donations buy seeds for people in various parts of the world to grow their own food.
