Beyond a garden concierge business—Victory Gardens has become a living, breathing design experiment. It asks: What happens when we reconnect people to soil, story, and place?

Rooted in the belief that land can heal and teach us, this project blends biomimicry, ancestral wisdom, community-based education, and regenerative design. It’s not just about growing food— it's about growing conditions—ecological, emotional, and social—that support long-term sustainability.

Through hands-on learning, beginner-friendly curriculum, and community-based workshops, the Victory Gardens Project explores how urban foodscapes can mimic natural ecosystems, restore access to agricultural knowledge, and become tools for collective healing.

This work lives where sustainability meets soul—and it’s growing in real time!

What Concerns are we addressing?

• Urban food insecurity and limited access to fresh, safe food

• Underutilized or degraded growing spaces in urban environments

• Lack of regenerative practices in everyday growing

• Gaps in access to beginner-friendly, hands-on, and culturally relevant education

• Loss of ancestral and intergenerational knowledge

• Need for relational, reflective frameworks for educators and designers

• Emotional and cultural disconnection from natural systems, cycles and land

What will the end products be?

• Teaching Toolkit: Modular, beginner-friendly lessons, visuals, and facilitation guides that make ecological science and urban agriculture accessible and culturally grounded.

• Garden System Templates: Scalable, regenerative garden layouts with companion planting, seasonal planning, and soil-building practices.

• Reflective Framework: A set of guiding questions and principles for educators and designers working at the intersection of ecology, urban agriculture, justice, and community care.
