We are a locally supported community garden with emphasis on all natural growing practices. We have an holistic approach to sharing & tending common local favorites. We have expanded. Our Beaufort Rd garden is now a little over an acre. We have added 2 more locations, with 1 acre each. This has allowed us opportunities for U-pick. Visitors are offered the opportunity to pick on halves for some crops.
In the main garden at 384 Beaufort Rd, we are transitioning to our early Fall produce. We currently have Okra, eggplant, a small amount of tomatoes & herbs. Our Pears and Figs will soon be ready also.
Fall is one of our favorite seasons because it allows weather that is more friendly to laborious task. We welcome families, students and anyone who is interested in learning about food and sharing knowledge.
Working with nature, we have a spiritual approach to growing & respect for our land. We welcome all (especially children) to visit & share like minded ideas. We also can, preserve, offer classes & create various natural remedies from our crops. We have added Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils. Our latest pride is that we are now opening our farm to our military who are looking for natural forms of therapy for PTSD. This has been a passion of mine for quite some time.

I have known Susan for years now, and it is wonderful to see The Gratitude Garden take off and bring so much joy to so many people. I enjoy the fact that not only can I rely on Susan for fresh, locally grown foods, but also for tips and recipes to help me with the preparation of these foods.... [more]
Susan has been a pleasure to work with. She makes sure you always have the freshest veggies. The baskets have been great! You would never be able to get all the organic veggies that you get in the store for the price.... [more]
