Back to School and Into the Garden

                 The Cultivars are an amazing group of students, activists, families and friends. They just completed this amazing garden at Nuevo South. They even saved a peach tree and existing cacti.

They always keep the crew on task, They're there to answer questions, lend a hand, encourage and grow the Cultivars to massive action. Not to mention product hook up and installation management. 

10599280_10205335998305952_3291357538481492871_nWe have many more gardens to  install in the next twelve months, in accordance with our USDA grant. Would you like to help?  Jump in!  We can hook you up.  And  as always, any financial assistance is always  appreciated. 

10621540_709366059150634_1570957558_oThe kids have been highly motivated and full of action.  We have another class of Cultivars in session as I write this.  Our goal is  to create roots in the neighborhood and a sense of community that creates demand for fair, fresh and abundant food. It's working.
