​More about Gardeneers

​Gardeneers works with Chicago’s South- and Westside schools and communities to contribute positively to the larger food system. They do this by supporting youth in school garden and farm programs to build the knowledge, skills, and habits to become leaders who care for themselves, their environment, and their communities.
