Gardens for Humanity’s mission is to develop and share our relationships with Humanity and Nature through gardening, art, and education.
Founded in 1996, Gardens for Humanity has worked for ecological education to help give our children and all members of our community the values, tools and experiences needed to seek and regain balance with the natural world. Our many Programs and Projects throughout the years have helped to enrich our Verde Valley area from personal wellness to schools and communities. Read more about what we do.
