At Growing High Point, we are honored to offer the Garden Angel program—a special initiative that celebrates generosity, community spirit, and the healing power of fresh, local produce.

Recently, Amanda Cook, a High Point City Council member who joined the Garden Angel program, shared a heartfelt message that beautifully captures its essence.

Amanda’s words remind us of the beauty in small, thoughtful acts and the powerful connections they create. Her father’s dedication to anonymously sharing his garden’s bounty with those in need mirrors the spirit of the Garden Angel program, where fresh produce is delivered to those who may not have access to it—with a touch of mystery and magic that brings joy and healing.

Happy Meatless Monday!
This week we're featuring a Peanut Stew. This tasty dish is packed full of nutrient-rich veggies, but the peanut is the star of the show! Brown rice and sweet potatoes help make it a meal and the spices really bring it to life. This Peanut Stew is budget-friendly and it saves well for easy meals throughout the week. *For a nut-free option, swap the peanut butter for sunflower butter and the peanuts for chickpeas.
