Ongoing Support

To ensure that our gardeners are successful, Growing Places provides our participants with ongoing support throughout the program.

Garden Mentors
Seasoned garden mentors are available by phone and email for consultations during the first year. They will help you plan your garden, make sure you receive your seeds, seedlings, and compost, and follow-up with you as needed to ensure success.

Newsletters
In addition, Growing Places also supports our clients with regular newsletters that include helpful tips on gardening, recipes, articles and more.

Opportunity to Improve the Programs
Growing Places surveys all gardeners during the first and second year of the program so that we can evaluate our effectiveness. This gives gardeners and opportunity to make a difference in our programs and services so that future gardeners benefits from their experience.
