We at Funk Town Farm feel that gardening as a community not only is a service to that community but to the gardeners as well. Gardening slows us down in an otherwise hectic city, reminding us what is real. We believe that there is no anxiety that digging in the dirt cant cure. We believe that human beings are meant to spend time outdoors. We believe in removing cement. We believe that getting dirty is good not bad. We believe that chickens that are loved make more eggs. We believe that we can cut back our garbage sent to the landfill by composting AND use it to grow things at the same time. We believe that bugs are better than pesticides. We believe that the taste and smell of a tomato just off the vine can change hearts. We believe that we were created to dig side by side and share stories. We believe that is is true that “God made dirt and dirt wont hurt”.
