Check out this great Washington Post article about school gardens in DC. The article includes an interview with Principal Wiseman of Center City PCS - Trinidad Campus. Center City Trinidad is a Washington Youth Garden, Garden Science program partner and their school garden was installed by WYG! The article also includes an awesome map of school gardens around D.C. (I bet you will be surprised by the number of school gardens!) The article is definitely worth reading.
The Washington Youth Garden was featured in the Homes & Gardens section of the August 2011 issue of the Hill Rag. Thank you to Rindy O'Brien of Hill Rag for writing such a wonderful article!
For this article in the Washington Post , Adrian Higgins spoke with
WYG staff to get an idea of what it takes to create sustainable edible garden projects
at schools. One of our Garden Science partner schools, Center City Public Charter
School in Trinidad, was featured as well.
A reporter from local NPR station WAMU visited us one week to capture some of our summer programming. A Friday cooking session with our Green Team summer youth employees was captured, as well as a Saturday morning of Growing Food...Growing Together, our family program.
