Generations Engaged to Empower the Future
It began with a seed ….
Founder, Adasha Turner a homeschooling mom with EDS and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS)l had to learn to grow her own food in a hydroponic garden. While researching inflammatory food irritants they came across “The Need to Grow: Food Revolution” and saw the importance of having all of our children learn how to grow their own food. She started on her journey as a Master Gardener with her daughters and sought out a partnership with 4-H Youth Development Programs.
The Turner’s began reaching out to other homeschooling parents to transform their 1/3 acre plot to start the Ummah Sustain Garden and Global Citizen club. Understanding our children need to learn how to navigate toward healthy, inclusive systems that will benefit and rebuild the community.
