Zarea's seed pod (Southwood Boys & Girls Club)

Spring is here, and with it the youth in our program at the Southwood Boys & Girls Club are learning the art of gardening. Guided by Sean Sheppard and Tim Adkins (of Backyard Farmer), and veteran ART 180 program leader Kerry Anderson, the young artists are learning the techniques of sustainable agriculture. As they tote compost, seed collard greens and broccoli, and design the layout of their fruit and vegetable garden, these young people are creating a living, breathing work of art in their community!
