About the Program: 

Irma C. Ruiz Elementary has a long-standing investment and interest in the landscaping gardening and maintenance of our campus at 2410 South Leavitt in Chicago's Pilsen/Little Village community. Our investments have led our Garden Team to identify four main objectives for a school garden: learning health and wellness farming and community.
