Daystar Life Center in partnership with Bayfront Health created our Seedlings to Neighbors program which aims to increase accessibility to fresh and healthy produce in our community. The program walks ten families through a garden build, planting, and harvest season with the support of a compassionate and skilled team. Participants have access to a one-on-one mentor, a licensed nutritionist, and garden experts that are readily available for support and encouragement.
Each garden is intentionally created to accommodate health needs and preferences specific to the household, and participants join Daystar Life Center alongside their families for monthly events to further promote agricultural education throughout the entire process.
Follow along our journey in cultivating curiosity for healthier Nutrional choices, recipes, and garden tips!
