Description

Growing To Give: Freeing People From Hunger
Imagine A World where the most resourceful and productive community farms and gardens thrive, nourishing communities with fresh and sustainable produce. Now, imagine those farm and gardens being gifted to communities who are passionate about sustaining them for years to come. That's what we're all about at Growing to Give ® - creating a movement of generosity and empowerment through innovation in agriculture.
Agriculture is not just a means of survival for people in need in these communities but also a source of pride and purpose. It's a way for people to connect with the land and with each other, a way to grow to give, learn new skills, and to contribute to the common good. By promoting sustainable farm and garden practices, Growing To Give intends to free millions from hunger
Siobhan (Chevon) Shaw is the driving force behind the establishment of Growing to Give, where she serves as the Co-Founder and C.
hair. GrowingtoGive.org is a global organization comprising experts, innovators, and supporters in climate-resilient agriculture, dedicated to introducing low tech solutions for ensuring food security.
Siobhan holds unparalleled expertise in Crop Circle farming, a unique and sustainable agricultural system, making her the sole female authority on this subject worldwide. She champions the cause of empowering women in farming, striving to increase their representation in local communities. Her conviction lies in the belief that by providing women with the knowledge of growing food, they can nourish not just their families but their entire communities.
Growing to Give implements food growing systems that optimize resource utilization and foster high-yield farming within the community. These systems are specifically designed to significantly minimize water, space, and fertilizer requirements, surpassing the efficiency of traditional farming methods. Siobhan collaborates with a dedicated team of over 60 professional volunteers spanning diverse fields such as agriculture, marketing, project management, legal services, sustainability, and fundraising. Together, they forge partnerships with key agencies and community-driven corporations to donate, install, and train resource-challenged regions in adopting these sustainable farming practices.
The collective efforts of Growing to Give yield far-reaching benefits, not only in terms of earth-friendly and community-centered farms but also in building more resilient, happier, and healthier communities overall.
