Joyful Souls Heirloom Nursery
Sow & Grow Education Programs


Joyful Souls supports the creating or reinvigorating of youth and community gardens though on-site building, gardening education, and provides donations of garden supplies for schools, communities, churches and more.
We have a children's greenhouse and our educator and volunteers come to help build raised beds, educate on sustainable growing, and provide seeds and seedlings to get you started and keep you going in schools and community centers.
We operate from grants and donations to provide supplies and gardening support to the community. If you are interested in donating goods, funds, or time to support community and school gardens, contact us below.
If you are a school or a community group interested in a starting or reinvigorating a garden program, please contact us using the form below. We can discuss current garden situation and needs.
We look forward to getting everyone growing!
