Faith forward connection in the modern world
The Garden Project helps young adults move beyond shallow dating by becoming the right person first.
-
We create intentional, in-person spaces where connection can happen naturally.
From Rooted: The Garden Project Experience to local chapter meetups, we bring people together around shared values, purpose, and a desire for something real. These aren’t mixers or networking events. They are environments designed for meaningful connection.
-
Connection is strongest when people are committed to growth.
Through our conference experiences, guest speakers, podcast, and curated resources, we provide guidance and perspective around faith and self improvement, helping people do the inner work that lead to healthier relationships.
-
Growth doesn’t stop when the event ends.
After Rooted, attendees are invited into a 30-day challenge designed to help them apply what they’ve learned in practical, everyday ways. From there, local chapters provide an ongoing rhythm of community. Monthly gatherings reinforce growth, accountability, and intentional connection over time.
As Romans 12:2 reminds us: “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
The Garden Project exists to help people grow from the inside out so the relationships they build are healthy, intentional, and lasting.

Why TGP Exists |
Modern dating is fast, shallow, and disconnected.
Swiping and social media have replaced conversation, leaving many connected but not truly known.
Meaningful relationships require formation, not shortcuts.
Lasting connection begins with growth in character, faith, and self-improvement.
People need real spaces to grow and connect.
The Garden Project creates intentional, in-person spaces where meaningful connection takes root.
