Name of the Project: Growing Together: A Community Garden Project for Health and
Sustainability
Name of the Team: "Green Thumbs United" - this team name reflects the community garden
project's focus on sustainability and healthy living, while also highlighting the collaborative and
united efforts of community members.
Team Members: All of the students in BSBA MARKETING MANAGEMENT 1-A
Introduction:
Our community is a diverse and vibrant place, filled with people who care about the well-
being of their neighbors and the environment. We believe that by working together, we can create a
more sustainable and healthy community for all. As such, we are proposing a community garden
project that will promote healthy living and sustainable agriculture practices while bringing our
community members together.
Our community garden project will provide a shared space for residents to grow their own
fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs. By working together to cultivate the garden, we hope to foster
social connections, promote healthy eating habits, and reduce food waste through composting and
other eco-friendly practices. Additionally, we aim to provide an educational resource for community
members on sustainable agriculture practices and the benefits of local food systems.
We believe that our community garden project has the potential to improve the overall health
and well-being of our community, while also promoting environmental sustainability and social
connections. We invite you to join us in this effort and help us make our community a healthier and
more vibrant place for all.
Statement of the Problem:

Our community faces a number of challenges related to health and sustainability. Many
residents struggle to access fresh, healthy produce, while at the same time, our community generates
a significant amount of food waste. Additionally, we face a growing need for more sustainable
agriculture practices and education around the benefits of local food systems.
Furthermore, our community is diverse and spread out, with limited opportunities for social
connection and community involvement. Many residents feel disconnected from their neighbors and
their environment, which can have negative impacts on their overall health and well-being.
To address these challenges, we propose a community garden project that will provide a
shared space for residents to grow their own fresh produce, while promoting sustainable agriculture
practices and reducing food waste through composting. Additionally, by working together in the
garden, we hope to foster social connections and provide an educational resource for community
members on the benefits of local food systems and sustainable agriculture practices.
Objectives:
The objectives of our community garden project are:
1. To promote healthy living by providing a shared space for community members to grow their own
fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs.
2. To reduce food waste by promoting composting and other eco-friendly practices in the garden.
3. To promote sustainable agriculture practices and education around the benefits of local food
systems.
4. To foster social connections and a sense of community among residents by working together in
the garden.
5. To provide an educational resource for community members on sustainable agriculture practices

and the benefits of local food systems.
6. To promote environmental sustainability by reducing the community's carbon footprint through

local food production and reduced transportation emissions.
7. To increase community engagement and participation by providing a volunteer opportunity for

residents to get involved in a meaningful and productive way.
By achieving these objectives, we hope to create a more sustainable, healthy, and vibrant community
for all.
Methods:
To achieve the objectives of our community garden project, we propose the following methods:
1. Community Engagement: We will engage with community members to identify their needs and
interests in the project. We will also encourage participation through community outreach efforts,
including social media, flyers, and local events.
2. Site Selection and Preparation: We will identify a suitable location for the garden, taking into
consideration factors such as sun exposure, soil quality, and accessibility. We will prepare the site by
clearing any debris, improving the soil quality, and installing any necessary infrastructure, such as
raised beds, compost bins, and irrigation systems.
3. Garden Management: We will provide ongoing management and maintenance of the garden,
including coordinating volunteer schedules, providing necessary tools and equipment, and ensuring
the garden is well-maintained and free of pests and disease.
4. Education and Outreach: We will provide educational resources to community members on

sustainable agriculture practices and the benefits of local food systems. We will also hold workshops
and events to engage the community in the project and provide opportunities for learning and social
connections.
5. Harvest and Distribution: We will coordinate the harvest and distribution of the produce, either
through a community-led system or by donating the produce to local food banks or other community
organizations.
By utilizing these methods, we will create a successful community garden project that promotes
healthy living, sustainability, education, and community engagement.
Resources:
To successfully implement our community garden project, we will require the following resources:
1. Land: We will need access to a suitable location for the garden, such as a community park or open
space.
2. Materials: We will need various materials to prepare the garden, such as soil, compost, raised
garden beds, tools, and irrigation systems.
3. Funding: We may require funding to cover the costs of materials, garden management, and
education and outreach efforts. We will seek funding through grants, donations, and community
fundraising efforts.
4. Volunteers: We will require volunteers to help with garden management and maintenance,
educational workshops and events, and harvest and distribution efforts.
5. Expertise: We may require expertise in sustainable agriculture practices, community engagement,

and volunteer management. We will seek out experts in these areas to help guide our project.
By securing these resources, we will be able to successfully implement our community garden
project and achieve our objectives of promoting healthy living, sustainability, education, and
community engagement.
