Our Program

The Bell Recycling and Climate Change Program aims to motivate community interest in learning about climate change and sustainable living while helping families who are financially burdened due to the ongoing pandemic.

Growing your own food can save families tons of money in grocery shopping bills whilst also promoting healthy organic eating. Reusing and recycling can help save the environment as well as save money! In this program, you will learn to incorporate recycling and sustainable practices like composting into vegetable gardening where you grow things like spinach, kale, carrots and lettuce!

The program consists of six Saturdays from April 10th to June 12th 2021 of growing vegetables in a community garden in the Bronx as well as growing with an at-home plant care project where you can grow smaller herbs and plants. Upon completing the program, you get to go home with a $100 gift card, a certificate of completion and all the vegetables and plants that you've grown so far.
