Roger and Bob showed up to retirement and said: let's grow something.

These two KCCG legends tend plots at Swope Park and across Kansas City — and every single thing they grow goes straight to friends, family, and community members who need it. Every. Last. Bite.

Need growing advice? Roger and Bob. Need seeds planted or sweet potato slips potted? Roger and Bob. Need a wheelbarrow delivered to a staff member who doesn't own a truck — loaded up and everything, door to door, no questions asked? Roger. And. Bob.

They're proof that neighbors and garden beds are always .

We've teamed up with Jack Johnson's All At Once network to celebrate exactly that. Sign up at the link in the comments for a chance to win two tickets to Jack's September 1st show at Morton Amphitheater — and learn how you can double your impact for KC Community Gardens through a matched donation.

Join The Giving Grove as we attend this fascinating virtual workshop hosted and presented by Seed St. Louis (a Giving Grove affiliate partner)!

Our orchards are ecosystems, and we can boost the services they provide, their health, and their sustainability all at the same time. In this virtual class, learn how to make some small changes to your design, including adding the right plants, to greatly increase the habitat for pollinators, beneficial insects, and birds to help your garden and orchard thrive.

When: August 20 @ 6 pm
Where: Zoom
