A whole acre of rich Oxnard soil.
A bunch of caring people.
And a dream.
The mission of Community Roots Garden is largely to increase food security, both by providing the harvest to those in need and by empowering the community to grow their own food. Besides growing food we are eager to grow community. We want to help ourselves and others become more self-sufficient and food secure. We want to share our food and share our knowledge about how to grow food. And we invite your involvement.
The Community Roots Garden is a ministry of, and is located, at the North Oxnard United Methodist Church in Oxnard, Ventura County, California.
