genHkids is having an event to kick off their community gardens! Coming Together for Community Gardens will take place on March 24th at the Inn at 835 from 9am-12pm! This will be a kickoff to our Community Garden lessons that take place at the genHkids Community Gardens (3rd & Canedy, Living Waters, and Johnson Park). These lessons will teach participants how to not only maintain a garden, but the impact community gardens can have in their neighborhoods and how to get involved!
