Volunteer Broward
LAUDERHILL, FL (March 24, 2011) – Volunteer Broward’s Garden of Feedin’
program has been sprouting valuable lessons in nutrition education for
young children throughout the county. The program, funded by the AD
Henderson Foundation and first introduced by Volunteer Broward in 2008,
has produced more than a dozen gardens at pre-schools and community
centers from Pembroke Pines to Pompano Beach.
Garden of Feedin’ is an early child care gardening project that actively engages children, parents and childcare providers in the urban gardening concept to improve the quality of life for the community, grow healthy foods and produce a sustainable edible garden. This year’s program has engaged 450 children in Lauderhill, Oakland Park and Fort Lauderdale in four garden projects.
