After installation day ➡️after 4 weeks ➡️ where it began!

All of our installations aren’t BIG, they are designed and built to fit your space and needs. Lesley had limited space outside due to living in an apartment but had the perfect spot right off her patio for her 3x2 raised bed to fit! Now she has a garden right outside her kitchen door.

Posted • Last week, the Green Teens had the opportunity to meet a variety of inspiring individuals! The annual Ag Panel took place at Highland Youth Garden. This year, the Green Teens kicked off the event by guiding a garden tour for the Franklin Park Conservatory’s Teen Corp. After some ice breaker exercises, the teens gathered around the harvest table and enjoyed a lunch made by the Green Teens!

The teens then split into three small groups to engage with agricultural experts from various organizations in Central Ohio. These professionals shared their humble beginnings and personal journeys with the teens, showcasing the diverse paths within the agricultural field.

A big thank you to all the panelists who dedicated their time to interact with our teens! It was truly an incredible afternoon at the garden. The energy and enthusiasm were palpable, with everyone feeling inspired and eager to explore the possibilities in the agricultural field. In addition to the insightful discussions, the event fostered a sense of community and connection among everyone.

As we look forward to future events, we remain committed to empowering our youth with the knowledge and opportunities they need to make a positive impact on the world. Thank you once again to all the volunteers, speakers, and participants who made this day truly special. Here’s to many more afternoons filled with learning, growth, and inspiration at the Highland Youth Garden.

Did you know?

This is the vault at the end of the world where all the existing seeds on the planet are kept. It is located in the Svalbard archipelago, Norway, about 1,300 kilometers from the North Pole. Opened in 2008, this underground warehouse is designed to preserve 4.5 million seeds of crop plants from around the world, acting as insurance against the loss of genetic biodiversity caused by natural disasters, conflict and climate change. So, in case the world is ever destroyed and you are the only survivor, you know where to go.

Wow! Thank you for inviting us to We Go Green event this year! We had a ball helping 399 kids from 7-13 plant purple coneflowers to take home to start their gardens.

This is what community and education is about. Starting somewhere helping someone begin their journey towards something and in our case getting starting on their gardening journey.

Let’s get into the facts! For some reason fresh quality food has become a luxury when it is innately a necessity.

Fresh Roots is bridging the gap between quality fresh food access and real people because this access is absolutely a necessity.

YUP! Our Ghost Peppers are fire 🔥 (Get it!?) •The best part of growing your own food at home is when you can bring all your friends and family together to eat what you’ve grown even if it’s trying one of the hottest peppers in the world just cause. That’s community. •Ghost Pepper Fact 🔥In 2007, Guinness World Records certified that the ghost pepper was the world’s hottest chili pepper, 170 times hotter than Tabasco sauce. The ghost chili is rated at more than one million Scoville Heat Units (SHUs) and far surpasses the amount of a cayenne pepper. And since has been surpassed by the Trinidad Scorpion Pepper, Carolina Reaper and Pepper X! •Would you dare to try a dish made with ghost peppers? 🌶️🔥•#FreshRoots614 #CommunityEmpowerment #LocalProduce #SustainableFarming #UrbanGardening #EdibleGardens #InclusiveAgriculture #BIPOCFarmers #HealthyCommunities #SelfCareInFarming #GardenTherapy #EnvironmentalSustainability #LandAccess #FoodSecurity #GrowYourOwnFood #GreenLiving #UrbanFarming #FarmToTable #SupportLocal #EmpowermentThroughAgriculture
