About Gods Garden
In Missouri City, God's Garden grows fresh organic vegetables for food pantries and other organizations, delivering them on the same day they are harvested. Your support helps make fresh produce accessible to people experiencing food insecurity while supporting gardening education for people of all ages. It also helps sustain a community garden where people gather through service and learn practical, sustainable gardening practices.
The same-day delivery is the point: vegetables go from harvest to food pantries and other organizations without waiting. God's Garden also gives people of all ages a place to learn sustainable vegetable gardening and take part in community service.
