Triscuit and Urban Farming team up

TRISCUIT






I grew up in Rural Illinois where farming was not only a hobby but a way of life. Both of my grandparents were farmers with hundreds of acres of corn, wheat and bean fields. My children grew up in town where they saw their own grandmother and me their mother grow gardens, flowers and fruit. one does not have to have hundreds of acres or a large garden to learn the greatness of gardening. A simple plot of land, a container or even a bucket to grow a few plants in will give the gardener both the pride of raising their own plants as well as being able to eat the delicious produce that they grow.

Triscuit has created a website and movement to help all those from rural areas to urban communities to start home farms all over the country. Triscuit has teamed up with Urban Farming (a non profit organization) to help all gardeners beginners to more seasoned gardeners to learn more about the deliciously fresh, penny wise, healthier way of gardening.


Inside specially marked Triscuit boxes you will find dill and basil seeds that will help you get started on farming your own garden at home. Triscuit and Urban Farming are sowing seeds together to create 50 new community based farms throughout the U.S. in hopes to harvest enough food to help those in need while raising diversity, education of youth, adults and seniors and provide an environmentally sustainable system to uplift communities.

“I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Triscuit and received the product necessary to facilitate my candid review. In addition, I received a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.”
