Permaculture Sanctuary: Promoting Trauma Resilience Through Regenerative Gardening In Winston-Salem, NC

Twin City Garden Club, Zone VII

2020 Founders Fund Winner

Children who have experienced trauma deserve a sanctuary. TGCC's budding permaculture food and sensory garden, co-created with Crossnore’s Miracle Grounds Farm, serves 450 children daily, including 45 resident foster children. Crossnore’s environment supports cutting-edge techniques to gain power over pain through education, art and soil therapy--restoring souls through soil. The Founders Fund grant would elevate our flourishing garden to a far-reaching food forest.
