Polls open this TODAY, May 11, for Vallejo's first ever Participatory Budgeting process. There is a great proposal for Community Gardens and Nutrition Education. This proposal will support 10 gardens all over Vallejo, including the Vallejo People's Garden and Loma Vista Farm!
The proposed project has three goals: 1) Increase access to fresh, healthy produce across Vallejo and especially in low-income neighborhoods. 2) Empower area residents of all ages, ethnicity, and socio-economic backgrounds with the skills to grow their own food, provide nutrition education and foster environmental stewardship. 3) Boost the city’s morale by creating connections within and between neighborhoods of people helping people.
