About Us
The Giving Garden is a non-profit donation garden that grows produce and poultry (chicken and quail) in Parker, Texas on less than an acre, but with room to grow. We’re a faith-based organization that believes in using our gifts and resources to feed those around us who are struggling; most of what we raise goes directly to area food pantries. We also teach our volunteers to grow their own food to improve their quality of life and protect our community from a fragile food system. Some of our quail products are sold to the public to help us meet our everyday expenses.
Practices
The Giving Garden uses chemical-free natural processes to grow our food including no-till gardening, cover cropping, and natural fertilizers in our container garden, caterpillar tunnel, and in-ground garden. We compost all our waste, recycle all we can, and enrich our small pasture with tractored laying hens. Most importantly, we nurture relationships as we nurture our soil.
