Food ED’s unofficial motto the last five years has been, “We’re building the bridge as we walk on it.” And that bridge hasn’t faltered. From one inquiry about a school garden to managing 14 gardens across five cities, we’ve grown in more ways than one.
 

These gardens are spaces to learn about plants, soil, bugs, and healthy living—but even more, they’re places of community, resilience, and hope. We’re still building, still rooting, still growing—and the real growth is in communities finding hope in a world full of hopeless headlines.
 

When we plant seeds, sift compost, and cook alongside our neighbors, we break down barriers and build longer tables. We establish roots that help us endure the challenges the world throws at us and create a foundation to grow even further. Here’s to the next 5, 10, 20 years of rooting in resilience and growing a brighter future—thank you for your ongoing support and for rooting for us along the way!
