100 Gardens

Rainbow Network would like to send a big Thank You to Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company in Mansfield, Missouri, whose donation will start about 100 new community gardens in Nicaragua.

Community gardens are a source of fresh fruits and vegetables for families and feeding centers, as well as a source of income for those who trade or sell extra produce in the market.

Freshly picked produce contains more nutrients than shipped produce harvested before it is allowed to ripen. These gardens also add variety to diets that would otherwise be little but rice and beans.

You can multiply Baker Creek’s donation of 100 gardens by adding to the gift! Click the give button to the right, call 417-889-8088, or mail a check to our office to make a donation.
