The Problem

I am trying to solve the problem of childhood obesity and lack of nutritional foods available for low income children.

Plan of Action

My plan of action is to have the children involved in our student enrichment program create and tend to a community garden. The children will till the land, plant the seeds, tend the garden and then eat the fresh produce for snacks and meals instead of pre-packaged, unhealthy foods.
