Cascadia Conservation District Supported residents at the Housing Authority of Chelan County and the City of Wenatchee with bilingual gardening and nutrition education courses. They also identified and linked communities in need of mobile food bank delivery and overcoming language and/or transportation barriers.
This work not only provided essential resources but also fostered a sense of community and empowerment among residents. Participants learned valuable skills in sustainable gardening, enabling them to grow their own fresh produce and make healthier food choices.
The nutrition education courses were tailored to meet the diverse cultural backgrounds of the community, ensuring that everyone could benefit.
