What does an author, actor, and producer do after coming back from serving as an Army combat field medic and specialist in the Middle East?

Why start a food-related not-for-profitt, of course!

At least that is what Mindy Dougherty thinks!

Feed My City helps people and plants grow by teaching the people how to release anxiety, depression, and even PTSD through the meditative, productive, and life-supporting and productive practice of gardening. Based on a philosophy of one seed, one plant, and one garden at a time, Dougherty tries to support her fellow Veterans and others by encouraging them to help themselves. In addition to having a new means of relaxing and getting in touch with nature, Mindy emphasizes how growing flowers and foods not only sustains the gardeners but their communities as well. 

In addition, Dougherty and her fellow city feeders also donate the bounty to area food banks and other support organizations.

Putting her military-endowed dedication and discipline to work, Doughterty hopes to grow her venture tso that many more can grow for themselves and others.
