Environmental Awareness One Child at a Time...

The Unity Garden's in South Bend has been raising awareness that all people should have access to quality food through their free gardens sprinkled throughout neighborhoods in South Bend. According to the Unity Garden Website, " The garden's provide healthy food for the community & bring diverse people together to grow, harvest, share, and eat healthy food. Each Unity Garden has two criteria: diverse people coming together to grow food and a sharing component."


This week the Unity Garden's sponsored a 2012 Wind Power Class for children. This free class was offered to  create awareness about the importance of alternative energy. Each child was able to construct a wind turbine and see how it works.What an opportunity to empower our children with the tools they will need as adults to think creatively about how to care for our environment. Follow their link below for future opportunities for free classes in our community.
