Pederson-McCormick Boys & Girls Club | Chicago, IL

The Organic Gardener has worked with the Pederson-McCormick Boys & Girls Club since 2009, leading young club members in hands-on educational activities and garden maintenance. The interactive garden program works to bridge the gap between the natural and urban environment for many children who may be experiencing growing and tasting fresh produce for the first time. Kids design, plant, maintain, and harvest a wide variety of crops throughout the growing season.
