Through the LaSalle Square Unity Garden, a 7 acre urban ecosystem, we support the 30 - 50 free food neighborhood Unity Gardens by guiding their horticultural efforts, sharing their stories and harnessing donations of seeds, plants, and materials to facilitate their growth. We host free classes, growing new gardeners, and our summer wellness programs help us invest in future generations; summer internships, recipe sharing, and Garden Guides who offer individualized fun in the garden.
