A special thank you to our amazing Washington Parks & People volunteers! They work with our apprentices to harvest fresh veggies which helps feed our families weekly!



We'd like to thank Washington Parks & People along with volunteers from around DC. On MLK Day, they helped us clean up at the Marvin Gaye Greening Center as we prepare to resume programming this week. We greatly appreciate all the support!
