Learn About Small Farming and Nutrition Programs: The New Roots Program in Seattle
The New Roots in Seattle is part of IRC’s Health and Wellness programs. New Roots has developed services and infrastructure aimed at engaging low-income families in urban agriculture, nutrition education, and healthy food access navigation. New Roots builds on the agricultural experience of many new refugee and immigrant families by providing access to land, materials, and education for program participants to grow healthy food for themselves and their communities.
