More California and Arizona school children will have access to healthy snacks, nutrition education and information about where their food comes from thanks to the Western Growers Foundation (WGF).
In July, the foundation awarded $15,000 in school garden grants, educator resources and drip irrigation kits (courtesy of John Deere Water) to 10 alifornia garden education programs. Additionally it awarded $1,250 and a one day training program for three teachers to each of 10 Arizona schools.
