Garden Project
In 1992, Catherine Steed launched The Garden Project by convincing local entrepreneur to donate a ½ acre vacant parcel in San Francisco to set up a garden and begin offering former prison inmates an opportunity to work as gardeners. The results have been tremendous, the garden's organic harvest is sold to top Bay Area grocers and restaurants and the recidivism rate for these ex-inmates is half of the state average.

Celebrate spring by planting garden for the summer.
