Our Approach to Funding:

Walking by Faith, Rooted in Relationship

We’re always grateful when someone feels stirred to support the work of the garden. That kind of draw isn’t forced—it’s revealed. It often comes through presence, reflection, or the quiet recognition that something meaningful is taking root.

The Neighborhood Garden Project wasn’t built through strategy or striving. It was planted through conviction. Every step forward has come with patience, surrender, and the trust that if this work is aligned, the right people will come alongside it.

We don’t chase funding. We stay grounded, believing that provision meets us where alignment already exists. This is how the garden grows: slowly, intentionally, and with seeds entrusted long before they were sown. Some are buried. Some take time. But all respond to the right environment.

That’s why we say no to funding that forces outcomes, accelerates timelines, or reduces stories to statistics. Not all money is provision. Some distracts. Some entangles. We’ve learned to wait for what equips without compromising.

Our approach is rooted in:

• Relational funding, not institutional validation

• Faithful presence, not urgent progress

• Shared vision, not managed expectations

• Mutual discernment, not unilateral control

We believe the resources already exist—revealed through alignment, trust, and timing. Provision doesn’t follow pressure. It follows peace.

So if you’re considering investing, we invite you to walk with us. Ask questions. Visit the soil. Let it be more than a transaction—let it be a shared sense of purpose.

We’re not trying to scale. We’re trying to steward.
And if the garden truly belongs to something bigger than us, it will grow—its way, in its timing, through the people meant to carry it.

Let’s cultivate something lasting—together.
