We teach residents to grow their own food and we work with them to maintain our growing network of over 100 home, school and community gardens.
The 100 Seeds of Change initiative establishes a local level food system through the activation of home plots, schools, parks and vacant lots with gardens and nutrition classes. SJLI built and continues to maintain a network of over 100 school, community and home gardens in Inglewood and surrounding areas. Community members, including students, their families and local volunteers, help maintain and harvest the gardens, so that residents can be empowered to eat healthy, whole foods.
