Project snapshot
The Bronx Elevates! is engaging local youth, adults and seniors in interactive workshops surrounding health, food, justice and culture. Residents are connecting with nature through gardening, learning about nutritional values of different herbs and exploring natural ways to boost their immunity. Community members are also making fire cider which is an herbal tonic that combines fresh garden ingredients with apple cider vinegar, so they see how they can apply their knowledge in their recipes.
