Practicing a whole community holistic approach, we hope to establish a sustainable garden-to-table program that will award participants with scholarships to learn how to tend to an edible garden, facilitate cooking demonstrations, and manage a farmer’s market cooperative. The long-term goal is to increase social and economic opportunities for migrant families, low income, and communities of color in the North Hills, San Fernando Valley community by increasing community power-building and decreasing income inequality.
