SALT
LAKE CITY, Aug. 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- USANA
Health Sciences, Inc., a leader in global nutrition, reached its
humanitarian goal of funding 30,000 Garden Towers. This low-cost,
self-sustaining method for planting multiple food crops in a single
source is well-suited for most regions of the world.
"I am so proud of USANA for embracing our goal to fund 30,000
Garden Towers by our 30th Anniversary Global Convention
last week" says Kevin Guest,
USANA CEO and chairman. "USANA is
making a difference through its Garden Towers project. A donation
of $20 covers the cost of the fabric,
soil, seeds, and training on how to care for them. I am so grateful
to everyone who helped give 30,000 Garden Towers to those in
need."

Garden Towers are large mesh bags filled with soil—their
simplicity makes them accessible to families living in some of the
most impoverished areas in the world. Filled bags are only three
feet in diameter, essential for the over one billion people
globally who have little to no access to land. Each garden tower
only needs 30–50 liters (approx. 8–13 gallons) of water per week
and holds up to 120 plants.
"To say I am happy about achieving this goal is an
understatement," says Brian Paul,
president of the USANA Foundation. "Garden Towers are being
deployed here locally, in Utah as
well as 9 other countries so far. Providing food for those without
access to nutritious meals is an amazing feeling. I cannot wait to
get these 30,000 Garden Towers all built and ready to grow."
