Just Hollywood launches gardening education program for teens

This month, Just Hollywood kicks off Just Food, a free gardening education program designed for students ages 14 to 18 years old. The program teaches students how to grow their own food while providing leadership training and an opportunity for students to start a garden in their community.

Classes are offered twice a week (M/W or T/Th) from 3 – 5 p.m. A cooking class and community meal will be offered on Fridays. The last day to register for winter classes is February 15. Winter classes begin February 21 and run until May 27.

On Sunday, February 27 from 3-5 p.m. there will be a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the start of the program.
