Currently our projects focus on three key aspects:  food waste recycling, urban landscape use, and food-growing skills sharing.  Click on the logos below for more information.

    from food-waste to farm soil

Commercial food-waste collection and recycling service - We offer clean, safe, and hassle-free pckup of your food waste.  We work with regional farms to develop compost programs for organic biology and long-term fertility.

       we don't do lawns

Urban organic garden design, build, and maintainance  - We can support design, install projects of any size.  We specialize in organic gardens, mini-farms, bee gardens, forest orchards and permaculture landscapes.

    growing your skills

A free peer-to-peer gardening skills resource group - We created PGE as a forum for gardeners and urban farmers to meet, share skills, and continue the discussion on regional food production.  Through PGE we host classes, skill-swaps, and social events all centered on growing food.
