Grand Street Kid's Club is a program developed to inspire children's creativity, imagination and social skills. To start off a good summer of new adventures, the program will consist of arts and crafts, step dancing, poetry, historical sites and theater visits, swimming and recreational games. The purpose of Grand Street Kid's Club is to provide a free camp and learning opportunities to the inner city youth who do not have access to or knowledge of summer opportunities, and to enrich their lives with artistic expression.

YO! is a garden project engaging and partnering with youth through skills trainings in sustainable agriculture and community organizing.

We provide leadership opportunities, a challenging environment in which to grow and a space for personal development, especially the improvement of health and nutrition.

Ultimately, we seek to create a just, local, sustainable community food system where everyone has access to safe, healthy foods, regardless of income, where farmers receive a fair price for the food they produce, and the land and the people are once again in relationship.
