About the Program: 

 The reinvention of our food system is now part of the national dialogue with employers, employees, and communities at large looking to positively affect today’s concerns about escalating health care costs, food security and nutrition, personal and family health, community development, and “carbon footprint.” Springhouse Green offers simple solutions for greening corporate and community spaces with vegetable garden buildouts, nutrition counseling, lunch-and-learn workshops, garden maintenance services, and LEED applications.

A corporate or community wellness garden provides an easy and cost-effective solution to support and promote healthy eating habits, and also creates direct opportunities for exercise, team building, and relaxation.
