We are excited to announce that Mobile Gardens is soon launching in Puerto Rico! This idea will serve 24 schools. Because of the recent hurricane and the loss of soil as well as landslides, Mobile Gardens will hopefully optimize their food production. This experimental stage will mainly focus on soy beans.

“Mobile Gardens©” is a world hunger project that invites innovators to design a sustainable food garden that is portable, meets varied needs of regions and climates, and utilizes locally-sourced materials. The goal is to provide highly nutritious food to populations in crisis.

Many regions of the world experience challenges for food production due to war, famine, poverty, lack of resources and other extreme conditions. A Mobile Garden can be easily moved from place to place, even to find more suitable growing conditions within the day. This concept is beneficial for any community, from urban to very remote and can be adapted to the specific requirements of the areas.

The pilot program, completed by students in Ohio, is one idea. But by encouraging innovators around the world, the idea can be adapted to provide one healthful, economic solution to the hunger crisis.

The pilot program for Mobile Gardens was generously supported by Folgers®, a division of JM Smucker Corporation. While we needed the containers for our Mobile Gardens, the coffee was donated to schools, first responders, and other groups in need. We are grateful for Folgers® and their kindness!

The pilot program, launched April 2021, is built by creative-thinking students in Ohio. This design uses 120 Folgers® coffee cans with lightweight soil. The entire garden weighs approximately 135 lb. and can be easily moved with handles.
