Victory Gardens for Peace is a project of Ecology Action, a 501(C)3 non-profit based out of Willits, California who for over 45 years has been researching and developing the GROW BIOINTENSIVE® method of agriculture. This method has been proven in over 152 countries in virtually every soil and climate where food can be grown. This technique helps people and communities empower themselves to meet their most basic needs for food sustainably while also helping regenerate our ecosystems.
Whether experienced farmer or amateur gardener, we can meet you where you are at and help you better understand how to conserve water, grow soil, increase yields, save seeds, build better compost, carbon farm and enhance the ecology in and around your farm or garden. We have a variety of resources available to you for free and offer internships, workshops and courses.
