Why We Do It
One out of six Americans needs food assistance, but can't get fresh produce from the local food pantry, while,
millions of American homeowners grow more food in their backyard gardens than they can possibly use.
It Doesn't Have to Be This Way!
AmpleHarvest.org envisions an America where millions of gardeners eliminate malnutrition and hunger in their own community using only their backyard gardens.
