Looking for the perfect gift this holiday season for a friend or relative?  By giving a tax-deductible tribute gift to the Washington Youth Garden, you help DC youth and their families learn about growing food, nutrition, and nature.  To express our thanks, we'll send a personalized card to the person or family of your choice indicating how your gift will directly benefit local children.  Come see us in person at the Alternative Gift Fair in Hyattsville, MD Saturday, December 13th from 10:00-2:00.
