"As all things of his divine power which appertain to life and godliness, are given us, through the knowledge of him who hath called us by his own proper glory and virtue. By whom he hath given us most great and precious promises: that by these you may be made partakers of the divine nature: flying the corruption of that concupiscence which is in the world. And you, employing all care, minister in your faith, virtue; and in virtue, knowledge; and in knowledge, abstinence, patience; and in patience, godliness; and in godliness, love of brotherhood; and in love of brotherhood, charity. For if these things be with you and abound, they will make you to be neither empty nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our lord Jesus Christ. "
2 Peter 1: 3-8
We are Kingdom Roots.
Our mission is to establish sustainable practices in our community by providing gardens and education to residents. Imagine a society where fresh produce is accessible to those in need, where children learn the importance of sustainability, and neighbors cultivate not just gardens but strong relationships.
With your support we can expand our reach. With more donations and volunteer help we can build more gardens and create a lasting impact on communities in Southern York County. Whether you're a local business looking to sponsor an event, a volunteer eager to dig in or a donor wanting to support our mission, every contribution makes a difference.
Nutrition and food security
Fresh fruits and vegetable play a vital role in healthy living. Our gardens give the community residents nutritious options and help alleviate some of the grocery bills each month.
Community Connection
Gardening is inherently collaborative. We aim to bring people together towards common goals. Our gardens will be where friendships are forged; where neighbors can gather and connect over the joy of practicing sustainability.
Educational Opportunities
We believe in nurturing and guiding the next generation. The gardens will serve as outdoor classrooms where children can learn about ecology, gardening and the importance of healthy choices. In the future, as we expand, we intend to hold workshops and training sessions that empower individuals with the skills they need to thrive.
Overall Better Health
Not only are fresh foods optimal for your nutritional health, but studies have shown that gardening has significant benefit to mental health. Simply putting your hands on dirt reduces stress and improves mood. Being outside in the sun and physically moving your body to care for and harvest your garden boosts your overall well being. Self esteem can be increased by carrying for and watching plants grow; a real sense of accomplishment is received. Overall cognitive functions like memory, focus and attention can vendor as well.
