An intergenerational game kit sparking meaningful connection, interaction, and dialogue.
While we’re all unique individuals with our own interests, likes, feelings, thoughts, and values, we all share the same basic human needs—the need to be social and the need to connect with one another. Our fast-paced, youth-driven culture of constant digital connection has, in a way, separated us from the basics of personal interaction that our elders are trying very much to hold on to.
With Me encourages people to slow down and spend time together.
Each game provides a starting point for connection where the participants create their own unique experience as a synthesis of the moments that make up their lives.
Our Mission
Kent County is one of the most severely underserved communities in Tennessee. To combat this adversity, Project Sprout seeks to nourish our neighbors at the most fundamental level with healthy food options and a strong support network. All members get a portion of each harvest and surpluses are donated to low-income families whose work schedules prevent them from volunteering.

With ten gardens and counting, Project Sprout has seen a significant improvement in mental and physical health for all participating community members. Other than lowering obesity, blood pressure, and depression rates, the crime rate has also fallen. Our children are doing better in school, reporting higher grades and aspirations, and better job prospects.
Get Involved
If you live near one of our gardens, get involved to receive portions of each harvest. We accept volunteers regardless of skill level. There is a rotation in roles, but we’ll teach you all the skills you need to know. Teenagers 14 years and older can earn community service credits for school in addition to getting produce for their families. Donations are also vital to our growth, as we use them for seed, fertilizer, tools, and outreach.
