Greens Growing!
Arugula, mustard, spinach, peas, oh my! We are growing like crazy over at the garden and feeling blessed. Thus far, we have been able to pass along the product to six families that may not otherwise get to enjoy organic fresh produce.

New Name, Same Mission
We decided to move to a more fun name for our garden efforts in PDX. Our mission remains the same:
The People's Republic of Produce is an intentional urban-farming initiative that exists to grow the best local, organic produce to be given the lowest income people in North and Northeast Portland neighborhoods. We grow as much as we can and give away all that we grow. We envision PDX neighborhoods checkered with intentional garden plots that exist to feed, educate, and sustain all those who live there, especially those who would not otherwise experience the benefits of healthy, local, organic food.
