We understood the powerful role that food plays in uniting, educating, and empowering communities. In Puerto Rico there is little access to a locally grown and nutritious food supply. Since 2014, we started working in rehabilitation centers and with children.
We developed organic gardens in these communities and have taught how to convert the gardens into delicious food. Weekly, we visit different communities to teach the word of God with our educational-biblical modules.
The organization has a small, 1/2 acre farm, where we began to grow organic produce. At the farm, we have constructed an outdoor garden-to-table restaurant where we employ interns that have successfully graduated from our program in their rehabilitation center.
As they work with us in the gardens and kitchen, we provide discipleship classes and help them organize their finances. We also invite their children and wives to come to the farm and eat together as one big family. We began working with children to teach them the word of God through agriculture and culinary arts projects. We always finish every meeting eating together.
