Reimagining Agriculture, Community, and Sustainability

Our Story

Lovegrowing began with a simple yet profound vision: to improve quality of life through nature’s beauty and sustainable practices. Our journey has been one of learning, experimentation, and collaboration. Through a test farming project, we collected organic produce waste, transformed it into compost with the help of a local worm farmer, and used it to grow vegetables. Partnering with local farms, we sprouted and planted hundreds of vegetables, donating the harvest to organizations like Food Angels, the Ashland Food Bank, and community meal programs.

While our work is still in the early stages, these efforts have reinforced our commitment to innovation and sustainability. With an online store now live, we’re laying the groundwork for future programs that will integrate food production, energy efficiency, and community empowerment. We’re excited to share our ideas and welcome you on this journey as we grow together.
