Growth Begins With Strong Roots |
We endeavor to disrupt the endless cycle of poverty & food insecurity that traps these underserved children.
Our approach starts by feeding the tender roots of the neighborhood- the children themselves. We feed their mind and body by introducing the ideas of a strong body, an active mind and the skills, knowledge and experience they will need to develop the self reliance to provide these things for themselves/ Our Grow Where You Are Planted initiative provides experiential learning opportunities for students in the Cincinnati area as in the areas of agriculture, food science, environmental science and healthy food. We know that children are far more likely to try new fruits and vegetables if they participated in the growing process. Since 2018 MyWhy has helped to create and maintain school and community gardens, created meaningful curriculum and assisted with in school/afterschool garden/agriculture clubs and programs. |
