City Green

City Green's School Gardens and City Sprouts Programs support the creation and maintenance of over 45 educational gardens in schools and community organizations throughout Northern New Jersey where children develop a deeper understanding of the natural environment; gain understanding of food systems and the importance of eating healthy foods; and have access to outdoor recreational activities in their own community while gaining an understanding of where their food comes from, the benefits of locally grown and organic food, the importance of healthy food choices and the impact of food choices on their health.
