Vertical Garden Kit

Vertical gardens allow families to grow fresh produce in small areas, such as balconies, patios, or even inside a home. Vertical gardens produce food and also filter pollutants and carbon dioxide out of the air.

Semear is an urban ministry utilizing agroecology and income-generating projects to proclaim the gospel among the poor and socially vulnerable, including the homeless, refugees, and children.
