Spend this summer learning to plant, grow, and harvest produce with Artists Creating Together (ACT)!
In the Art of Gardening program, students will learn to plant, grow, and harvest their own produce with a professional gardener. In addition to tending the garden, the program also includes a visual art project to beautify the space, a site visit to Urban Roots on July 30, as well as culinary lessons in which students will use what they’ve grown to assemble a seasonal recipe.
On Sept. 10, students are invited to celebrate the season at our annual Community Harvest Party, from 5-6:30pm at the Carrier Street Garden.

- When: Tuesdays from July 9 to Aug. 13, 5:15-6:15pm
- Where: Carrier Street Community Garden in the Creston Neighborhood
- Ages: 10-15 years
- Cost: $60
