The Green Thumbs program has four goals to support refugees:
- To create portable kitchen gardens for refugees’ homes and apartments.
- To collect basic gardening tools for refugees to care for their gardens.
- To refer excess fruit and vegetables from volunteers’ gardens to the food banks that support refugees with regular food drops.
- To give refugees access to local gardening groups and community gardens in accordance with their visa restrictions.
