In April, something powerful took root in Homestead—and not just in the soil.

During race week for the 2025 Miami E-Prix, Sprout Up had the incredible opportunity to partner with Formula E through their Better Futures Fund, receiving a generous investment in our Greener Together Community Garden initiative. This wasn’t just a donation—it was a moment of collaboration, inspiration, and hands-in-the-dirt action that reflected the heart of our mission.
The support from Formula E is helping us expand access to fresh food, build sustainable gardening infrastructure, and create new opportunities for youth and families to connect, learn, and grow—together.
A Day of Impact: Community in Motion

As part of the celebration, Formula E staff and drivers from Mahindra Racing joined our Sprout Up team for an unforgettable afternoon of:
Planting seedlings in the garden—laying the literal and symbolic groundwork for growth
Packing nutritious food kits for families in Homestead and Florida City
Leading Q&A sessions with local youth focused on teamwork, resilience, and sustainable innovation
These weren’t just activities—they were acts of connection. We watched young people light up with curiosity and pride. We saw families walk away not only with food, but with new memories and a sense of visibility that too often goes missing in communities like ours.
Growing Toward a Greener Future
This partnership is more than a one-time collaboration—it’s part of a bigger story. One where food access, wellness, and environmental education go hand in hand. One where families who have been historically left out of sustainability conversations are placed right at the center.
“At Sprout Up, we are thrilled to partner with Formula E to drive meaningful change in our community. Together, we’re fostering a brighter, healthier future while inspiring resilience and growth in those we serve.”– Natalie Rowe, Co-Founder & Executive Director
With this support, we’re deepening our impact:
Hosting workshops for hundreds of community members
Partnering with schools on environmental education
Building garden infrastructure to nourish both body and mind
Distributing fresh produce to over 2,000 individuals annually
This is what it looks like to grow something lasting.This is what it means to build better futures—together.
Powered by purpose. Rooted in community.
