Enjoy the many benefits of food gardening

Gardening outdoors surrounded by nature is healthy for mind and body and provides many benefits, both for the individual gardener and for the community as a whole. There is peace of mind knowing where your food comes from while also reaping the benefits of physical activity and time spent outdoors.

We follow the latest soil science

Deep Roots Project teaches how to grow food with limited space in raised beds. Our horticultural advisor applied the latest soil science of organic and regenerative farming to backyard kitchen gardens and named our innovative method Transformational Gardening. The healthy soil supports an ecosystem of microorganisms, which nurture healthy plants. The huge populations of soil microbes feed nutrients to the plant roots as nature intended. We replenish microbes and nutrients every season with more compost and worm castings.

Our innovative method is easier to learn

Beginner gardeners love our innovative method because it’s easier to learn and to setup your food garden than traditional organic gardening. Plus, it ensures success year after year. Intermediate and advanced gardeners with busy lives also appreciate the simplicity of our method.

Our gardeners have a partnership with nature

The key to joyful gardening is starting small and growing your knowledge every year. Learning from mistakes is part of your evolving partnership with nature. The Deep Root team is ready to support you when problems arise. Contact support[at]deep-roots-project.org
