Our BGC Garden & Outdoor Education Programming at the Spruce and Centre Street Clubs educates Club Kids on the importance of sustainability and healthy eating.
Over the last year
-
The BGC Garden Program has helped to address the food desert in Trenton, faced by close to 90% of Club Kids.
-
The Club has provided over 175,000 meals/snacks including fresh fruits and vegetables grown in our gardens.
-
Over 800 youth have attended events in the gardens, including the Gourmet in the Garden which brought out talented experts to enhance the student's experience and exhibit different ways they can use the plants they are growing
