| Form 990, Part III, Line 2: New Services | During this fiscal year, our most significant achievement was to launch our Sierra Gardens Program. Sierra Harvest launched their Sierra Gardens project in February 2014. Sierra Gardens builds on our farm-to-school program by providing families education and materials to enjoy a productive, organic home garden. After a site assessment and income validation, a crew builds a garden and deer fence and brings produce started, seeds, and a growing guide. Mentor gardeners visit the family for two years, providing the support needed for a successful experience. Families in the program will have access to gardening, nutrition and cooking classes that will allow them access to a healthier lifestyle with less dependence on social services. |
