Dennis and Jennifer Gardner

Dennis and Jennifer have been married for 27 years and are blessed with 10 children. They also welcomed their first grandchild into the fold in February of 2024!

Dennis has moved from retail management to IT, to finance in the last 30 years. He uses all his skills from these careers in his position at Graceworks Ministries as Director of Business Administration and Finance.

Jennifer began homeschooling in 2001 and is still homeschooling today. She spends her time volunteering with her children at Graceworks and their church, working on their small homestead, and managing a crazy schedule.

In 2024, Dennis and Jennifer formed Restoring Roots Farm, LLC. Our goal for 2024 is two-fold.

1.) Divert 20 tons of waste from entering Tennessee's overburdened landfill.

2.) Increase our small worm farm as we create nutrient-dense compost & vermicompost to handle 50 tons of waste next year!
