The Garden of Hope promotes food security, nutritional education, and community strengthening through practial and participatory programs. Each week, mothers from the commumity participate in hands-on cooking classes where they learn to prepare healthy, plant-based, and culturally appropriate recipes using produce from the community garden.
Each month the participating moms prepare at least four healthy meals for their homes. Throughout the year, in the cooking classes, we address key topics such as: nutrition, family economics, principles of plant-based eating, and environmental sustainability.
20 Women participated in the cooking classes throughout the past year. 107 food baskets were delivered to families and 1,860 meals were served to program participants.
