GIVING BACK
The Kay Ceniceros Senior Center in Southern California
was a happy, sharing place this past Friday, when one
of groOrganic's dreams came true with a
community gardening endeavor.
Students from Evans Ranch Elementary School planted
herbs and vegetables alongside their new-found
gardening friends at the center. groOrganic team
members Jennifer DeWitt, Stephanie Ross, and
founder, Karen Cancilla, provided guidance and support.
See more photos and local press coverage.
"It was absolutely amazing to see all these people come together as a community
all because
of some raised planters!" - Karen Cancilla"I loved getting my hands dirty in the dirt" ( 89% of the kids said this )..."I wish we could go every week"
..."I want to tell my parents to come with me and I will show them 'our' garden at the Senior Center."
- Lynda Hartman, teacher at Evans Ranch, sharing comments from her students' journals.If you'd like groOrganic to help your community with a similar gardening project, give us a call at
