About the Program:
A goal is to establish community plots in the garden for families without their own land to grow food. We hope for community volunteers to become interested in the garden so that they can teach the students and therefore equip future generations with the knowledge to provide for themselves. Also community members who had a negative experience at school growing up could cultivate new more positive experiences as adults through the garden and help current students feel more excited and engaged.
