Knox County Green Teens!
The end of July finishes the summer work program GREEN TEENS. Get Healthy Knox and many community partners created this opportunity for emerging adults as a work preparedness program for 15-18 year olds in Knox County.
The work group went around to community gardens in the county, working to steward the growing spaces with maintenance, e.g. mowing, weeding, planting, and even harvesting! They also learned about safe food handling working at the Woodward Kitchen to help prepare fresh food for our local hot meal programs.
THANK YOU, GREEN TEENS FOR ALL YOUR WORK THIS SUMMER!
If you or a teen you know, would be interested in working for a crew like this, follow Get Healthy Knox County on social media for next year's announcements!
Or bring your questions and interests to the OPEN HOUSE at Arch Park in Mount Vernon on August 6 at 6:30-7:45pm.
