In the last couple of years, we have had a major shift in our overall efforts. We have put more and more effort towards growing food all year long. We have also looked at growing in small spaces, those living in apartments have fewer options for growing. Another shift has been towards more nutritious and healthy options for our efforts. We are always researching, trying, and implementing various methods of growing/types of plants within our efforts to improve and benefit our efforts. For many years we have been growing indoors in a 2 bedroom apartment, utilizing space in our kitchen and a 4x4 ft space in our living room. We are doing what we can to provide more nutrition for ourselves, providing healthier cooking options with foods grown without pesticides/herbicides while adding nutrition with fresh foods.
Many of our projects/programs will be of use not only to those in need but those interested in options for themselves and their families. Growing indoors started for the main reason of helping to reduce the feast/famine found in seasonal growing conditions. Those suffering from food insecurities for the most part lack nutrition in their food options. During the harvesting seasons, fresh-grown fruits and vegetables are abundant but are short-lived with the short harvesting seasons. Providing consistency with additional healthy options can have a major positive impact on an individual and can help with ongoing health issues for an individual as well.
You will find many different sections within our efforts, sections about growing without dirt, dehydrating grown foods, making spices to add nutrition and flavor, the plants being used to help increase nutrition, seed production, and much more.
You will find we also work with local small businesses to assist with our efforts. By working with local small businesses and utilizing our community marketing options we can provide more space for growing plants while raising awareness of our efforts to provide more free food for those most in need. With restaurants, we will be able to provide Pay It Forward activities that will utilize our LIFE Community Project to distribute the meals. Our take on this will help to reduce issues restaurants have with providing these types of options while helping to reduce the abuse of these types of programs. Working together we can achieve some amazing results to bring more and more benefits for all where we live/work/play.
You will discover that many of the options in one way or another will closely work with the LIFE Community Project and the direct efforts to assist those most in need. The truth is the reason for the various sections across the collective is to provide more and more resources for the LIFE Community Project.
LIFE - Love Is For Everyone
