Help us transform vacant lots into healing gardens and fresh-food hubs across Newark.
Mental health starts in the soil beneath our feet. Through Green Minds, Healthy Hearts, STEAM for ME NJ Inc. and Apiary in the Sky are reclaiming four vacant lots in Newark’s South Ward to create vibrant gardens, outdoor classrooms, and a mobile farm‑stand delivering fresh produce to 300+ neighbors each week. Your gift funds land acquisition, raised‑bed construction, youth stipends, and a Rutgers‑led study on how green space reduces stress and boosts community resilience.
“Every seed we plant is a step toward healthier minds and a stronger community.”
