ComeUnity
What is it?
A ComeUnity Garden is more than just a garden.
It’s a place where people grow food — and grow together.
Why “ComeUnity”?
We believe community and unity belong in the same soil.
That’s why we named it ComeUnity — a space built for all of us.
Where does it live?
Anywhere we can grow in Houston:
A parking lot corner. An empty patch of land.
We transform unused spaces into something healing and alive.
What happens there?
We grow fresh, local produce.
We host workshops and invite volunteers.
We teach people how to grow their own food and care for the earth.
Why it matters:
It’s not just about growing food —
it’s about growing purpose, belonging, and care for our city.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is Neal & Nettie’s?
What does "culturally relevant" mean?
Culturally relevant means our recipes reflect the food traditions, ingredients and everyday experiences of the communities we serve- with care for both heritage and health.
We honor familiar meals with ingredients like greens, legumes, grains, and spices, while also being mindful of health concerns that are more common in certain communities — like high blood pressure, diabetes, fibroids, and endometriosis. Every dish is designed to nourish the body and spirit, without compromising flavor or cultural connection.
