Dish with Gracie: A Garden for All

Dish with Gracie: A Garden for All

There is something deeply satisfying about planting a seed, nurturing it, and watching it grow into food that will nourish your family. For nearly two decades, Gracie has championed the joys of growing your own food and the ripple effect it can have on a community. Her journey through Recipe for Success Foundation has shown her that gardening doesn’t just feed our bodies—it connects us to our neighbors, creates healthier children, and fosters more equitable access to fresh, nutritious food. As we face an ever-growing divide in food accessibility, Gracie believes that starting a home garden can be a small, but mighty, act of change.
