Recruiting Organization: Springfield Promise Neighborhood

Springfield Promise Grows (SPG) and the Visioning Garden are projects of Springfield Promise Neighborhood. We are committed to the dignity of feeding our families and providing for their health and vitality. The one-acre Visioning Garden has a Hoop House that is newly renovated to include beds to grow food for Promise events and local food pantries. It includes public demonstration beds that provide free produce to anyone child or adult. The Kitchen Vegetable Garden provides beds for residents to grow vegetables in their own plots. We have planned a recreation and meeting space that will involve a play area for children. A meeting space with tables provides an area for food education as well as for community celebrations.

Launched in 2010, Springfield Promise Neighborhood ( https://www.facebook.com/springfieldpromise) is a non-profit working with a network of schools in south Springfield. SPN is dedicated to the success of the children -- a success measured by their ability to succeed in school and eventually graduate from high school with the skills necessary to get a good paying job or pursue higher education opportunities. SPN believes that both a thriving neighborhood and a thriving school are needed to drive youth success.
