Our Mission

The We Sow We Grow Project is dedicated to the furtherance of gardening and farming in an urban landscape through education and service. Fresh fruits and vegetables are possible to grow for all and we seek to remove the fear and reservations of growing your own food through community-powered assistance in an urban ag safe space. We seek to connect growers from all over on any and every level.

WSWG taught me how to grow. I was not into nature or dirt or anything, but through this organization I learned that in order to grow anything, you have to get a little dirty. I learned that even the smallest seed, can bring forth the biggest, most beautiful bounty. WSWG is about so much more than gardening. It's about finding the seed within and nurturing it to its full capacity. Oh, and I learned we can have chickens in the city.

Natasha and WSWG have taught me to navigate the complexities of gardening such as seed starting and transplanting, garden planning and disease management in a simple way that is easy to understand and implement. Her attention to detail and support is truly evident and valued greatly.

WSWG is the definition of “we.” It is exciting to be a sliver of the voices and resources being shared in an international learning community. WSWG shines bright!
