To focus on community impact and education here in New Jersey this morning, we’re highlighting a local organization that’s helping students connect with nature, healthy food, and hands-on learning. The Greater Newark Conservancy has been a force for good across the city, running community gardens, youth programs, and environmental workshops that bring the lessons of sustainability right into the classroom.

Joining us now is Patrick Evans, with the Greater Newark Conservancy, to talk about how their Farm to School program is helping young people grow, both literally and figuratively.
