BRIGITS BOUNTY COMMUNITY RESOURCES

Description

Brigit’s Bounty runs a Giving Garden that donates all of its fresh, chemical-free produce to local residents in an effort to address a lack of access to healthy foods in a district that has a fast-growing population and a shortage of resources to address the community’s growing needs. BBCR works directly with students from Thunder Valley K-8 School, which has one of the highest percentages of students that qualify for free and reduced lunch in the district, to provide hands-on experience in the garden and education around horticulture, environmental stewardship, health, and nutrition. BBCR also hosts a variety of community education programs in the garden, including Summer Garden Camp, Garden After School, and Adult Gardening Workshops.
