Park Avenue School Grows Produce for Local Organization

Park Avenue Elementary School's ecology club, The Green Team, recently shared its vegetable garden's harvest with Long Island Food Not Bombs, according to an article on the organization's website.

Everyone was excited to show off the gorgeous heaps of swiss chard, lettuce and herbs they grew together. The garden’s coordinators, Robin Obey and Jill Skelly, encouraged their students to create their incredible garden and to share their bounty with other children in-need across Long Island.

Long Island Food Not Bombs provides groceries, fresh food and warm meals to low income communities. All the food distributed is vegetarian and mostly organic.
