Damayan is a 501(c)(3) organization founded in 1992 to increase food security for low-income families. For seven years, Damayan was a grassroots, volunteer-run organization planting only family gardens. In 2000, we wanted to extend our reach in the community and use the gardens to teach nutritional and environmental education. To this end, we began planting community gardens in low-income neighborhoods, community centers, and schoolyards. We currently support more than 10 community gardens and edible schoolyards in the Tallahassee area. To realize our mission, we partner with the faculty and parents at a school or a community organization to implement and maintain the gardens. In addition to supplying soil, compost, plants and seeds, Damayan offers hands-on instruction while the new gardeners master the skills necessary to maintain the gardens themselves. Our mission: To sow the seeds of ecological awareness and healthy living in our community through hands-on gardening activities.
