North Newark Urban Garden 4H Club will be created and started May 30, 2013 to support it's mission of teaching children about where food comes from, and how to grow plants. The children that are currently invited are the children in Kindergarten through 4th grade.
The intention will be to see how it can benefit both the children and the garden. As we begin to get together and join, I will report and let you know how it goes. If you have a child that is in Kindergarten all the way through 4th grade, and you would like them to join, please stop by any Thursday at 3:30 and check us out!
