Gardens for Gaza is an initiative to advocate for the people of Gaza through gardens grown around the world in their names.
"...if poems are true & each martyr is a rose, we can claim to have made a garden of the world."
-Mourid Barghouti , Palestinian poet

STEP 1. Include White, Green, & Red plants & flowers in your garden to correspond with the Palestinian Flag. Feel free to use any additional colors. We have listed a hand full of red, white & green plants to get you started. Keep in mind creativity is welcomed & encouraged! |

Step 2 Dedicate the garden to an individual or family in Gaza either "in honor of" or "in memory of". You can also post their name in the garden along with the words “Gardens for Gaza”. Although not a requirement, our hope is to send the message that the people in Gaza are not simply numbers but individuals.
Step 3 Share your dedication or honor garden on social media with #gardensforgaza to keep eyes & hearts with the people of Gaza! We encourage schools, master gardeners & gardening clubs, farmers, and florists to get involved too.
