Founded in service to neighbor, soil, and future generations.
Who We Are
The Global Earth Care Network
WAS born from the Stewardship Party movement—a growing effort dedicated to restoring the health of our planet through practical, solution-based action.
We believe that many of today's environmental challenges can be reversed by embracing two simple but transformative actions:
1. eliminating the use of toxic chemicals at our homes, schools, churches and businesses and
2. transforming our lawns into productive, food-producing landscapes.
The solutions already exist; the challenge is making them accessible, understandable, and easy to implement.
The Global Earth Care Network was created to connect people with the knowledge, products, services, professionals, and resources needed to build healthier homes, landscapes, farms, and communities—making Earth Care simple, practical, and actionable for everyone.
Our mission is to inspire and empower people to become active stewards of the land, water, wildlife, and communities around them. Through practical solutions and collaborative action, we can restore balance, strengthen local resilience, and create a healthier future for generations to come.
"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete."

Our Leader Jim Gale & His Current Projects
The Global Earth Care Network, Stewardship Party & Food Forest Abundance were founded by Jim Gale — entrepreneur, world traveler, and lifelong advocate for permaculture and self-reliance. After backpacking through thirty-seven countries and building a career in business, Jim spent years building eco-villages in Costa Rica, where he discovered the transformative power of permaculture.
Food Forest Abundance, has helped families turn lawns into food forests across the United States and beyond. Jim founded The Stewardship Party on a simple conviction: that removing poisons from our food system and restoring true principles of Earth Care can help heal a nation and regenerate the relationship between people and the land.
"A free people begins with a fed people."
