LVEJO's Urban Agriculture Program has mobilized 50 families in the last 2 years to build community and backyard vegetable gardens. 15 residents have been certified in the last 3 months under the Building Urban Gardens Training Program. We continue to work with community members, schools, churches and organizations to help create gardens throughout the area.
.....
In the Summer of 2007 parents of McCormick School and local community members applied for and received a Green Net Grant to create a small garden outside the school. With the help of over 12 volunteers the garden has expanded to include the front of the building as well.

On January 31st, 2004 The People United for Dignity, Democracy and Justice Group (LVEJO’s leadership group) began attending the Building Urban Gardens Series (B.U.G.S), hosted by Garfield Park Conservatory. This group is learning all about planning, organizing and creating community gardens.
• LVEJO wishes all these groups the best of luck in the creation of their community garden in the Spring of 2007.
• If you would like to learn more about these groups or join them, or if you would like to begin your own gardening group, please contact at LVEJO (773) 762-6991.
