*Who are Joan and Lenny the Gourd Guy? Joan Riise and Lenny Feldberg are a Chicago artist couple who became enamored of gourds when they planted their first garden 8 years ago. Joan's work was natured based and Lenny was a nature photographer. Gourds offered a deepening of relationship with elemental forces of Nature. Since 1996 they have been instinctively leading community gourd gardens.
The Millennium Project has evolved from a single seed grown in one tiny backyard Chicago garden to an outreach of 2000 gardens that they envision embracing Mother Earth, along the way, rediscovering our common roots one garden at a time. We invite you to join us as we plant seeds of peace and dream the future vision.
