About Danville Giving Garden at A Fairy's Dream Farm
What is the vision for the Giving Garden? Allow us to paint the scene.
Imagine a vibrant garden filled with berry bushes inviting visitors to pick juicy fruits. Flower gardens attract pollinators, while the aroma of fresh herbs fills the air. Abundant vegetables are scattered throughout, ready to be harvested and shared. Cozy seating areas encourage community gathering and storytelling, while a charming play area delights children. The Giving Garden serves as a communal space where local gardeners share their bountiful excess, with a fridge on site to keep the treasures fresh. Seasonal gatherings, like outdoor dinner parties and pumpkin carving events, add to the garden's charm and community spirit.
From Founder Charlene Parker: I knew from the beginning that I wanted my farm to be one of purpose and community. Good, nutritious food is not accessible to so many for a variety of reasons and I want my farm to be a part of making it more accessible to as many folks as I can. When I was thinking about how I could *start* my farm with that intention, the Giving Garden project was born. I currently have a full-time job that pays our bills, so I do not need to put all of my efforts into the market side of the farm right away. Instead, I plan on focusing heavily on the giving garden this first year, with market sales being a bonus. If I could, I would grow food and give it away forever, but I do eventually want to leave my full-time job and farm full-time instead. My plan is for the sales from what I grow outside of the giving garden, and/or possibly donations from folks who believe in my vision, to support both my income and what is needed for the giving garden.
