MILPA Garden Program
The milpa technique originated in Central America where the Mayans used a mixture of corn, squash, and beans to improve the soil and grow food. To increase the spread of milpa gardening while increasing soil and community health, we offer a program which provides an acre’s worth of MILPA Garden Seed Mix for free. The only requirement is that the grower agrees to donate 70% of their harvest to a local food bank or charity.
