Renee's Garden Seeds Makes A Difference
|
Every year, Renee's Garden donates seeds to a wide variety of organizations and
educational programs worldwide that strive to improve social, economic and health
conditions, and promote the understanding and practice of sustainable organic
gardening. We also encourage retailers to donate unsold Renee's Garden seeds to
local non-profit organizations at the end of the season. We are
pleased to share some of their successful outcomes.

country. Your seed will be a major part of this international project, which has
been a coordinated effort between Rotary Clubs in the U.S., Canada, and
Honduras, and the office of the First Lady of Honduras."
