M.A.S.H. Veterans Honor Gardens


Growing with Purpose. Harvesting with Heart.

At M.A.S.H., we take great pride in our Veterans Honor Gardens—special spaces where veterans, military families, first responders, and community partners come together to cultivate fruits, vegetables, and camaraderie. Since the launch of our Honor Garden Program in Spring 2021, communities across Ohio have embraced the opportunity to grow with us—literally and figuratively.

These gardens do more than produce fresh food—they restore purpose, promote healing, and strengthen the bond between veterans and their communities. Every harvest is shared with veterans, first responders, and their families, providing nourishment for the body and soul.


Why We Need Your Help

Our early success was achieved despite limited resources. We had a setback due to the quality of the initial greenhouses. We've made significant strides since our early years and have received funding to acquire commercial-grade Amish greenhouse units, providing year-round access to fresh produce and therapeutic gardening opportunities.  These high-quality structures will withstand the seasons and serve as safe, nurturing spaces for our heroes.

We are seeking support to acquire commercial-grade Amish greenhouse units. These high-quality structures will withstand the seasons and serve as safe, nurturing spaces for our heroes.

Your support helps us upgrade our existing gardens and establish new sites across Ohio, bringing more healthy food, purpose, and healing into the lives of those we serve.

A Harvest of Healing

Our Honor Gardens and Greenhouses have become more than just places to grow food—they are sanctuaries of healing. Veterans benefit from the therapeutic power of gardening:

  • A renewed sense of purpose
  • Improved mental and physical health
  • Community connection and camaraderie
  • Access to sunlight, exercise, and nutritious food

We are honored to collaborate with The Ohio State University, the Central Ohio Beekeepers Association (COBA), and the Veterans Beekeeping School, providing veterans with additional opportunities to stay engaged, active, and inspired.


Giving Back

Everything we grow is given back to the community. The harvest supports Veteran posts, transitional housing programs, military families, survivors, and first responders—because no hero should ever go without.
