The New Roots Youth Garden initiative is committed to providing experiences that help local youth develop:

• Environmental Awareness gained by exploring the inter-connected relationships among living things like plants, worms and bees and non-living things like soil and water.

• Social Skills & Awareness cultivated through teamwork, service-learing, mentoring and leadership opportunities.
