The Garden Project was born out of our own story.

When we were single, we both struggled to meet like-minded people who shared our values and faith. We
didn’t want to meet someone at a bar, and online dating just felt shallow and disconnected. Even in church
groups, it often felt hard to form genuine relationships that went beyond small talk.

Through our own dating experiences, we realized we weren’t alone. Countless young adults across the country
were feeling the same way, longing for something real in a world where authentic connection is so rare.

We knew there had to be a better way. So we decided to create what we always wished existed — a space
that was intentional, comfortable, and fun. A place where men and women our age could meet, grow in their
faith, and experience meaningful connection and encouragement.

That’s where The Garden Project began, not as just an event, but as a movement to rediscover community,
purpose, and God’s design for relationships.
