RootDown in the 24th St School Garden

Our Youth Leaders came out for their first volunteer day at the GSF/24th Street School last Saturday.  It was simply awesome to see local high school students connecting with elementary school kids (and their parents!) in a nieghborhood school garden.  Our Youth Leaders had never been in a garden nor harvested from one.  They let the 24th Street Students show them their veggie beds and in turn shared their culinary skills to make a lunch of chicken noodle soup and garden fresh salad!
