Rainfall Roots is a hands-on garden and greenhouse program designed for disadvantaged youth, veterans, people with disabilities, and underserved or underrepresented community members.
Rooted in the mission of Rainfall Ranch Rescue, the program transforms land into a living classroom — teaching sustainability, self-reliance, and connection through growing, building, and giving back.
Here, participants learn more than how to plant and harvest; they learn confidence, purpose, and teamwork. Together, we’re cultivating a space where everyone can grow — in skill, in spirit, and in belonging.
The project centers on building a year-round greenhouse and garden classroom made entirely from repurposed, salvaged, and recycled materials — a living example of resilience, renewal, and environmental stewardship.
Through hands-on learning in sustainable gardening, composting, and creative reuse, participants gain practical skills while connecting with nature and each other. Rainfall Roots transforms reclaimed resources into a thriving space for growth, healing, and belonging — where every seed, every board, and every effort has purpose.
Current program needs:
Repurposed or salvaged building materials (framing lumber, greenhouse panels, hardware, doors, and windows)
Recycled metal or wood for raised garden beds and fencing
Water catchment and irrigation systems for sustainable year-round growing
Solar panels, lighting, and ventilation equipment for the greenhouse
Accessible pathways and seating areas for veterans and participants with disabilities
Organic soil, compost, mulch, and gravel
Seed starts, native plants, pollinator species, and herbs
Garden tools, gloves, and wheelbarrows (adult and youth sizes)
Shelving, work tables, and storage bins for classroom use
Rain barrels and drip irrigation lines
Corporate or foundation partners to sponsor greenhouse components or educational sessions
In-kind donations of equipment and garden supplies
