The New Leaf Garden is a place where the community can escape the pressures of their daily lives and experience the therapeutic effects of planting, growing and harvesting an organically grown garden.

Working with a certified horticulturist, clients help with garden duties, such as creating raised beds, watering, fertilizing, weeding, composting, planting and harvesting. The garden is filled with seasonal vegetables and herbs, as well as a few fruit trees. Outreach Center clients reap the bounty of the garden and incorporate the healthful fresh produce into their daily meals.

Currently We Have:

• Expanded the garden to include an herb and flower garden

• Established a social enterprise using home-grown herbs and flowers

• Established a business plan to commission clients to grow and deliver products

Ongoing Projects:

• Hosting workdays to build new garden beds

• Selling to local, downtown restaurants & businesses

• Selling herbs and flowers at Hub City Farmer's Market
