Agriculture & Sustainability
Mimi’s produce garden ensures that families in need have access to fresh, locally sourced food, promoting not just nourishment but also the dignity of a good meal.
Mimi’s Produce Garden
Composting Efforts
FeedNC composts food waste to enrich Mimi’s Garden and support fresh produce production.
Composting reduces methane emissions and nourishes the soil, helping provide fresh meals and groceries to the community.
Rainwater Harvesting
Collecting rainwater promotes sustainability by benefiting the garden, environment, and budget.
Our harvested rainwater supplements our drip irrigation system, waters raised beds, and cleans tools. We encourage the community to explore this practice at home.
