SCHOOL GARDENS

Staten Island is the greenest borough in New York City, yet it has high rates of preventable illnesses, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and asthma. School gardens, as part of a comprehensive strategy, have been shown to increase youth’s willingness to taste fruits and vegetables, increase levels of physical activity, and enhance academic instruction.
