M:When Katie Stagliano was 9 years old,she planted a cabbage seed in a garden outside her house.She cared for it every day.It grew to be HUGE!Forty pounds huge!With her mom’s help,she decided to donate this very unique cabbage to a local soup kitchen to help feed the hungry in her community.And because of her cabbage,275 people were fed.

She began to realize that gardening and helping people is what she likes to do most.So,she decided to start her first garden on a plot of land donated by her school.

With the help of her parents and school,a group called Katie’s Krops was born!Katie’s Krops gardens grow food that is donated to local soup kitchens to feed the hungry.

“I think if more kids get to experience gardening they would find out how cool it is and how many people can be fed if you donate your produce,”said Katie.She loves gardening and loves inspiring other children to experience the joy of gardening as well.

Katie’s dream is to end hunger around the world.She has raised over 200,000 dollars!And there’re now over 100 Katie’s Krops gardens growing food across the United States!Her goal now?To get 500 gardens across all 50 states.
