Register to be part of the Floreciente Community Garden youth club. This club is open to youth ages 8-18 who are interested in learning more about vegetable gardening, the process of creating a community garden, and providing community service to the Floreciente neighborhood. Meetings will be scheduled around plant growth milestones and optimal times in the growing season to learn about plant diseases, weeds, entomology, plant care, and best harvesting practices. Youth will also have an opportunity to help distribute produce from the garden during Mercado on 5th.
