Go the extra mile: Our Travel Fund for Healing Gardens

Our Travel Fund helps bring healing gardens to communities beyond our local reach.

At The Healing Garden Project, we partner with churches, community spaces, and organizations across the country to build gardens that nourish, restore, and connect. Many of these requests come from smaller congregations and under-resourced communities that do not have the means to cover travel costs for our team.

This fund ensures that distance is not a barrier to healing.

Removing barriers to access

Cost, distance, and limited resources often prevent communities from accessing programs that support wellness and food security.

Our team is currently being called to serve communities in Maryland, Oregon, Texas, and Indiana—places where gardens will support children, aging adults, people with special abilities, and families in need.

Travel expenses such as flights, lodging, and transportation can make or break our ability to say yes.

Your support helps us show up.

Expanding access to healing spaces

Each garden we install becomes a living space for:

Fresh, culturally meaningful food
Mental and emotional restoration
Community connection and belonging
Faith-based and intergenerational gathering

Without travel support, many of these communities would not have access to this kind of space.

Strengthening connection and care

Our Community Build Days bring people together—neighbors, families, and volunteers working side by side to create something meaningful.

In many of the communities we serve, opportunities for connection are limited. These gardens become spaces where people can gather, reflect, and support one another.

Travel funding makes these moments possible.

Supporting food access and nourishment

Many of our partner sites are located in areas with limited access to fresh food.

Our gardens help increase access to fruits, vegetables, and herbs that support health and wellness. They also create opportunities for education, sharing, and community-led food distribution.

Helping communities grow, wherever they are

Every community we work with has unique needs. Some sites are small churches with limited budgets. Others are serving highly vulnerable populations.

Your support allows us to meet those needs with flexibility—covering the real costs of getting our team, tools, and materials where they are needed most.
