The Problem
Our wish for the project is to promote healthy eating and gardening as a physical activity (Let’s Move Initiative) in low-income neighborhoods in Manhattan and the Bronx, NY. We strive to provide a social vehicle that offers younger and older generations the opportunity to interact and engage in issues concerning their overall health and wellness, such as the importance of incorporating fresh fruits/vegetables/herbs into daily diets and we promote gardening, as a physical activity. We also wish that Intergenerational projects such as ours spread through low-income communities.
