FARE Idaho Feature: Global Gardens
Photos by Marilyn Isaac Photography
A food hub, an entrepreneurship program, a community garden and an outsized impact. How do we describe the magic of Global Gardens in Boise?
Their training program gives 10-15 families the chance to build their own farming business starting from incubator sites with technical field assistance and teaching all the way through business and marketing development.
The Global Gardens food hub is an aggregation site connecting beginning farmers with local consumers such as restaurants and farm markets that seek fresh, spray-free produce.
The community garden provides family plots that provide self-reliance, intergenerational teaching and a sense of community and home, something any Idaho farmer will agree is the core of their way of life.
Visit Global Gardens virtually and again in person at their Pond Street or Liberty Street locations. Best of all, find their wholesale produce on the Field to Fork Exchange today!
Speaking of magic, FARE Idaho wishes to thank and celebrate Mari Isaac | Photography (pictured in the last frame) for her incredible work in capturing our members throughout Idaho with her creative lens and heart.
